Till,

issue is really with new website too - because hplip tries to download from two links: first from openprinting.com (where they stopped uploading plugin since 3.17.7 - here are reports where I told upstream about it https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1708606 https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1644932 , but without any reply), and then if first link fails it tries to download from www.hplipopensource.com, which provided plugins too (and upstream used it as workaround, because they didn't upload new plugin to openprinting.org before releasing new version, so it resulted in errors). IMHO both links should be working or at least that fallback HP one.
So fixing fallback HP link should be priority, then uploading missing plugins to openprinting.org should be done after that.
