Well the usb issue with my new printer also exists with the old version thats currently in ports as I now found out, and the only other issue that I remember (printing ascii or ps to the fax queue) could just as well be a problem/incompatiblity with the new cups version... And additionally, the old version's hp-setup seems to be incompatible with today's cups, at least it was unable to add the network print queues for my new printer when I tried it now. (unlike the new version. And also the gui certainly has improved.) Btw that testing just unconvered another bug: the package needs to add hpaio to ${LOCALBASE)/etc/sane.d/dll.conf too... I guess I should test the fax queue on Linux, and possibly usb on head... (fixing usb would at least need someone that still knows the old usb stack I'd say. _If_ it works on head. :) HTH, Juergen
