Heh, it is working better for you than it is working for the majority of
people, then. AFAIK, PyQT 3.16 broke faxing on Debian and Ubuntu for good...
Anyway, in hp-toolbox, open the configure|settings menu item (or press F2).
Check the function commands, and if there is a --standalone in hp-sentfax,
that's the problem.
There are no ocourrences of --standalone in the entire HPLIP source code
anymore, so it must have come from a local configuration file or something
like that.

It takes some time to update. It shows 1.6.10-2, now.
