That is encouraging!

Are you referring to this page (and the subsequent steps linked from
it):

   http://hplip.sourceforge.net/install/step1/apt.html

or to something else?

Do you believe that the desired functionality (scanning+printing) can
only be achieved by installing hplip 1.6.7 not by using the dapper
packages?

If so, have you had any success installing the hplip 1.6.7 deb files
from debian unstable or is installing from source my best strategy?

Many thanks,
-James
