Tim:

I appreciate your listening to this list to add more info to the debug 
page and see the section about what to do if lpinfo doesn't give an lp 
info. But I can't see from the doc (okay, its late and maybe I am tired 
and missing it) what to do to get lpinfo et al to work.

I think there needs to be a section of "if you used hp-setup", you need 
to do these other things. Yes, I know this is HP specific, but hp-setup 
is yum-able (is there a right word to describe "something that can be 
gotten through yum"?) and it seems like there is missing info about what 
might have fallen through the cracks.

Is this a conversation to take offline ... I am probably boring everyone 
who doesn't have an HP to tears.
