Hi,

Great!

The USB stack as a clamp on the timeout:

        xfer->timeout = fs_ep.timeout;
        if (xfer->timeout > 65535) {
                xfer->timeout = 65535;
        }

The unit is milliseconds.

Can you report this problem to the authors of hplip-3.9.8 ?

It seems FreeBSD behaviour is different that Linux behaviour!
