Hi Gerald,

Thank you for writing us.

1)Regarding HPLIP version information
-->HPLIP version information will be displayed in first line, when any of HPLIP command (hp-check, hp-toolbox, hp-setup etc) run.
e.g HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (Ver. 3.13.2 )
--> where as 'dpkg -l hplip', displays available package in repository.

2) Regarding existing Printer definitions for New HPLIP installation with "Remove and Install" option.
As per my understanding, print queue is not removed for existing printers. (Please let me know if it is different).
--> Reason for not removing the print queue is, user might have changed the settings according to requirement. If Installation removes the queue and setup new queue, user may loose his preferences.

3) Regarding updating only printer definitions.
--> Thank you for the suggestions, we will look into this.

Regards,
Amarnath
