Ah, thanks for the hint. Unfortunately hal cannot do string-based matching on integer properties, so we need a longer FDI rule. But generating that should not be a problem with the data which we have now. Till, maybe you can start experimenting with that? Use the Perl script from above to generate an FDI and put that into /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/10osvendor/20-hplip-scanners.fdi and check whether it works?
