grr, my bad, sorry. It should have been 002:004, not 03f0:2b17
Check lsusb before you run it next time to check the Bus and Device numbers.

Also take a look at the options and examples in
http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/tech_docs/man_pages/setup.html
and try to experiment with them. Maybe you'll find anything useful, I'm quite clueless what could be the culprit.
