Hi Sebastien,

as I wrote in the previous comment, I filed the issue for Ubuntu for the
future, because it seems new hplip version hasn't arrived yet.

I'm able to reproduce the issue with my MFD device - HP LaserJet m1536 -
with scanning. According of hpaio code, most devices are using a plugin
for scanning.

The basic reproducer is (after you install hplip-3.20.6):

Prereq:
- has an OS which haven't had HP plugin installed before ('hp-plugin' wasn't 
run successfully)
- has a device which needs HP plugin for printing or scanning or for both
- printing and scanning needs to be done via HPLIP, not via any driverless 
solutions (print queue device uri needs to start with 'hp://', scanner device 
uri with 'hpaio://')

Steps to reproduce for printing (if the device needs HP plugin for printing):
1) install the print queue via hp-setup
2) try to print

Actual result:
Printing fails due missing plugin

Expected result:
Printing goes well


Steps to reproduce for scanning (if the device needs HP plugin for scanning):
1) find out your scanner device uri with:
 
$ scanimage -L

2) take hpaio:// uri from previous uri and use scanimage to scan:

$ scanimage -d <device_uri> >out.pnm

Actual results:
Scanning fails with Device I/O.

Expected results:
Scanning works.

Title:
  version 3.20.6 turns off plugin requirement for most printers

Status in HPLIP:
  New
Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in hplip package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Hi,

  hplip-3.20.6 turns off plugin requirement for most devices which
  required the plugin at the past.

  This will make devices which really need it unable to print and most
  scanning will not work.

  Would you mind reverting the changes in models.dat?

  Thank you in advance!

  Zdenek
