Package: foo2zjs
Version: 20060124dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

>From version 20060124dfsg-1_i386 the utility usb_printerid is again missing
while its manpage is present.

Related to this utility, another issue already mentioned in #279830 is that
it is very hard to guess how to enable firmware upload with this package
unless you are yourself a developer, which renders this package more or less
unusable with a HP Laserjet 10xx.

May I suggest to add:
* usb_printerid (as said before)
* The script firmware uploader for HP, probably in /usr/bin instead of 
/etc/hotplug/ and without its install-usermap section.
* Adequate udev rules for the HP printers
* Documetation on the fact a firmware is required for the HP printers
and how/where to get the firmwares

See http://wiki.teuwen.org/HpLaserJet for example of loader and udev rules

Phil
