Actually that is a new information to me. On my OpenBSD 4.3 current
hp-check works like a charm.
You can manually check if you have each one of those libraries.
You are probably right about the fact that failure to get serial device
number is the show stopper but that seems
that points again to inability of ugen driver to fully communicate with
the printer. I started dusting of my C skills (in the real life I am a
mathematician) in particularly because I want look those drivers for
USB devices.
Sorry, I could not be of more help. As I said earlier you can use
printing function if you leave ulpt driver but that
definitely kills the purpose of having all-in-one device.
Best,
