HPLIP

hp-makeuri with the options "-f", "-s", and "-c" has no output, independent of the device

Bug Description

In system-config-printer I call hp-makeuri with the above-mentioned command line options to find the printing URI and the Fax URI for a network-connected printer separately.

This worked until recently, until the lines

print cups_uri
print sane_uri
print fax_uri

got replaced by

log.info(cups_uri)
log.info(sane_uri)
log.info(fax_uri)

as the log level for the quiet modes is only

log.set_level('warn')

I think the lines should be reverted from "log.info(...)" to "print ...", as the mentioned command line options are especially made to request the appropriate URIs and therefore the URIs should be displayed independent of the log level.

This needs to get fixed urgently, as it causes bug 250275, which means that system-config-printer (Ubuntu, Red Hat/Fedora) is not able to set up queues with the "hp" CUPS backend.

This is fixed in 2.8.8.

Aaron, Don, did you fix it by reverting from log.info() to print(), like in the attached patch?

I have applied the patch in the Ubuntu package for HPLIP 2.8.6b, so that the problem is already solved in Intrepid before the release of HPLIP 2.8.8.
