 In hplip-3.9.8/io/hpmud/model.c, line 426 I added debug:
 
          section[n-2]=0; /* remove ']' and CR */
          BUG("Comparing '%s' and '%s'\n",model,section);
          if (strcasecmp(model, section) == 0)
          {
 
 I saw hplip looked for a [hp_laserjet_2300l] section, but there is only
 
 [hp_laserjet_2300]
 [hp_laserjet_2300_series]
 
 in models.dat
 
 So I copied the [hp_laserjet_2300] section to a new section 
 [hp_laserjet_2300l]
 
 and hp-setup finds my printer and I can print happily ever after :-)
 
 But surely this can't be the right method?
