Comment:
@biopsin I have the nonfree repo installed, it's not there (shrug).

How do I provide error logs? lpr's verbose features were removed in earlier versions and debug features are not present in the version I have. Does it generate error logs? Or maybe error logs from the print queue... where do they reside?

On a side note, not related, I think the plugin is just a bunch of binaries spliced up in single plugin that provides support for various proprietary printing/scanning technologies. Correct me if I'm wrong.

EDIT: My guess why it isn't in the nonfree repo is that it can't be distributed from any other place except HPs site (haven't read the license, but my main guess would be this). In that case, the hplip-plugin package can be made to not actually hold the plugin binary in the package, but rather download it install it on the fly from HPs site... like meta package... sort of :P :D.
