HPLIP compatibility with d5360 is contradictory in your literature, please clarify.

Asked by rob

I have just purchased a Photosmart d5360 printer to support Debian 3.1 and 4.0. From your literature this seems unclear.
At
'http://hplip.sourceforge.net/models/photosmart/hp_photosmart.html' "Home>Models>Photosmart/Photosmart Pro>Photosmart", it says:
***Photosmart NOT supported by HPLIP***
At
'http://hplip.sourceforge.net/models/photosmart_d5300_series.html' it says: "Photosmart d5300 Series, supported by HPLIP ( ... ) Model Name Photosmart d5300Series, Photosmart d5360 Printer
There is at least one more example of this at:
'http://hplip.sourceforge.net/supported_devices/index.html "Home>Supported Printers"
So, will I be able to use my HP d5360 printer with HPLIP?

"Photosmart" was a very early Photosmart printer that did not have a model
number. Your "Photosmart d5360" is not a "Photosmart". Sorry this is
confusing, but there really is no other way to easily identify a
"Photosmart" printer.
