Bug Description
When scanning for a Color Laserjet M280 with hp-setup on the network it is not being found, even when specifiying the ip address. Running hp-setup in debug mode shows that the printer is reporting itself as "hp_colorlaserj
hplip version: 3.19.10
Distribution: Linux Mint 19.2
Printer firmware date: 20190716
Editing the section name in models.dat fixes the problem and the printer can be installed. This is the output of hp-check after manually editing models.dat:

Copyright (c) 2001-18 HP Development Company, LP
This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
This is free software, and you are welcome to distribute it
under certain conditions. See COPYING file for more details.
Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies are installed to
successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball has the proper dependencies
installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).
Check types:
a. EXTERNALDEP - External Dependencies
b. GENERALDEP - General Dependencies (required both at compile and run time)
c. COMPILEDEP - Compile time Dependencies
d. [All are run-time checks]
