Bug Description
My HP Deskjet 5150 shows up as a Deskjet 5100. When opting to configure the printer via the Gnome admin interface, the printer shows up as "HP deskjet 5100". An "lpinfo -v" lists it as two entries:
direct usb://hp/
direct hp:/usb/
However "lsusb" shows the proper device name:
Bus 002 Device 008: ID 03f0:6204 Hewlett-Packard DeskJet 5150c
This problem must be in either "cups" or "hplip". I'm inclined to say hplip, because I seem to recall a time when my printer showed up with the proper label, and hplip was introduced a few releases back (right?) - likely when this changed.
