But what is really unfortunate is that the box doesn't have a penguin
printed on it, and HP's product pages don't mention linux or point
to the hplip site. If I was HP, I'd want hordes of linux users
saying "Hey! Look! Linux support, I gotta get me one of those!".
I only discovered scanner support had been added to hplip by
complete accident when I saw a mention of it in some unrelated
thread during a web search.
