Hint: if you don't get it to work with ulpt, perhaps you can get it to work with HPLIP (http://www.freshports.org/print/hplip/)? Your printer is on the supported list. Under FreeBSD, HPLIP uses ugen instead of ulpt. (You'll have to use a kernel without ulpt and (if your prinyter have memoryc acdrs slots that uses umass) without umass). I'm using HPLIP with a HP PhotoSmart 8250, and it was quite easy to set up, and it works nicely. (Note: HP-SETUP didn't work for me, I had to use the CUPS web interface to set up the printer) Yes, it is inconvenient that I'll have to load umass manually when I want to use a memory stick or suchlike, but I can live with that.
