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
