Though the HPLIP way of installing printers still does not work, my HP network printer can be installed in Dapper (Beta2 plus updates as of 7 May 2006). I was able to install my HP DeskJet 5850 network printer OK:

- choose HP JetDirect printer
- URI: 192.168.1.63, (your IP may differ)
  without any prefix like socket:// or hp:/
- choose HP DeskJet 5850 printer from the list, and
  accept the default hpijs driver

Test page is perfect.

However, this is not the HPLIP way, because /usr/bin/hp-info (and other HPLIP commands) result in error message.
