So, what did I do?  Downgraded to 3.17.10+repack0-5.  Downgraded cups 
too, to 2.2.8-5 (although I don't know if I had to; please advice, if 
you can).  Got a laptop running testing where hplip/cups works as 
expected, almost.  And the hack to make it work is here:

This is just _one_ of the examples of how it it might look like:

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1544912

And I experience similar problems.  So, this a list of what I 
downgraded:

cups-bsd_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
cups-client_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
cups-common_2.2.8-5_all.deb
cups-core-drivers_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
cups-daemon_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
cups-filters-core-drivers_1.21.3-2_amd64.deb
cups-filters_1.21.3-2_amd64.deb
cups-ipp-utils_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
cups-pk-helper_0.2.6-1+b1_amd64.deb
cups-ppdc_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
cups-server-common_2.2.8-5_all.deb
cups_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
hplip-data_3.17.10+repack0-5_all.deb
hplip-gui_3.17.10+repack0-5_all.deb
hplip_3.17.10+repack0-5_amd64.deb
libcups2_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
libcupscgi1_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
libcupsfilters1_1.21.3-2_amd64.deb
libcupsimage2_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
libcupsmime1_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
libcupsppdc1_2.2.8-5_amd64.deb
libhpmud0_3.17.10+repack0-5_amd64.deb
libsane-hpaio_3.17.10+repack0-5_amd64.deb
printer-driver-hpcups_3.17.10+repack0-5_amd64.deb
python3-cups_1.9.73-2+b1_amd64.deb
python3-cupshelpers_1.5.11-3_all.deb

That's put on hold for now.

I got back printing and scanning functionality, but not all :(

The main problem with the hplip 3.18.10 is that hp-setup associates 
the wrong:

	Found PPD file: hplip:0/ppd/hplip/HP/hp-laserjet_mfp_m28-m31.ppd

(which is not a _color_ printer, does not do _duplex_ and has only 
_one_ tray, among other things)

with the printer:

	HP Color LaserJet MFP M281fdw

It should be:

	Found PPD file: hplip:0/ppd/hplip/HP/hp-color_laserjet_pro_mfp_m277-ps.ppd	

instead.  This post:

	https://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?317915-Print-amp-scan-with-an-HP-Color-LaserJet-MFP-M281-(fdw)&p=1806395

could be another way to do it, but I don't know if that works with 
hplip 3.18.10.

I wish hp-toolbox displayed like in attachment 1, not like in 
attachment 2, but I'll live with it ;)

Any advise on ways to cleanup this mess is highly appreciated.
