To the HPLIP developers at HP: We need a Linux solution for deactivating Smart Installer, so that the user does not need a Windows machine to "activate" the newer HP printers.
For USB cell phone network modems with such a driver delivery facility there is already usb-modeswitch. Perhaps this utility can also be used for HP printers after some additional configuration and or patching.
