Now, why the heck would it not find the device when it is already set up via CUPS and working properly in the desktop environment? The latest hplip version is 0.9.10, but I somehow doubt using the 0.9.8 would cause this type of problem as the printer I use is not a recent piece of machinery.
]]>No installed HP devices found. To install a device, use the CUPS web interface (http://localhost:631) or the printer installation utility that came with your operating system. After setting up a printer, you must press F6 or chose (sic) Device | Refresh All for the printer to appear in the HP Device Manager.
Note: Only devices installed with the hp: CUPS backend will appear in the HP Device Manager.

I have installed it using pacman. If I run pacman -S hplip I get a message saying it is already there.
