When I launch the gnome print tool and add a printer there are two detected printers:
hp photosmart 7550
AND
HP photosmart_7550
The second one is detected by hplip-toolbox but the first is not. I did nothing for these printers to be detected.
hp-info gives
Using device: hp:/usb/photosmart_7550?serial=CN33I4116P7E
and much data about this printer. It does not show the network printer (laserjet 1200 on 192.168.0.150). If I add -ldebug I get the following additional lines of output:

I am able to print well with both printers. The only problem being I cannot use hplip-toolbox to see the network printer and the workaround
hp-makeuri IP
does not appear to be implementable on the gnome print tool. Also the cups admin seems unreachable as well....
gnome-cups-man gives 0.31-1.1ubuntu
hplip gives 0.9.7-4ubuntu1
