Hi,
I am using hplip 3.11.3 (print/hplip3) from ports on my machine
running FreeBSD 8.1-stable:
tingo@kg-v2$ uname -a
FreeBSD kg-v2.kg4.no 8.1-STABLE FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE #3: Thu Sep 16
22:18:48 CEST 2010     root@kg-v2.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
amd64
hplip is built with these options:
root@kg-v2# cd /usr/ports/print/hplip
root@kg-v2# make showconfig
===> The following configuration options are available for hplip-3.11.3:
     QT=on "Graphical User Interface (Qt4)"
     FAX=off "PC Send Fax support"
     SNMP=off "Network/JetDirect support"
     SCAN=off "Scanning support"
     XSANE=off "Install XSane for scanning (requires SCAN)"
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings

Strangely, if I try to "Print Test page" from HP Device Manager
(hp-toolbox),  nothing prints, and I get this in /var/log/messages:
May  2 21:28:31 kg-v2 hp-toolbox: hp-toolbox[52007]: error: Fax disabled.
May  2 21:28:31 kg-v2 hp-toolbox: hp-toolbox[52007]: error: Fax disabled.
May  2 21:28:31 kg-v2 hp-toolbox: hp-toolbox[52007]: warning: Please
install version 2.0+ of Reportlab for coverpage support.
May  2 21:28:31 kg-v2 hp-toolbox: hp-toolbox[52007]: error: Fax
address book disabled - Python 2.3+ required.
May  2 21:28:40 kg-v2 hp-toolbox: hp-toolbox(UI)[52007]: error: Print
command failed with exit code 256!

Why does it do that when the fax option is off?

Normal printing works.
