Currently qt3 is an optional use flag for the hplip 1.6 and 1.7 ebuild. This
should be a forced dependency because the most important programs it creates to
manage the printers is entirely gui based. I was not able to run these
programs or configure the printer (HP Color Laserjet 3550) without qt3.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Emerge without qt3 flag
2.Run hp-setup
3.Fails to open without qt3 bindings
Actual Results:
hp-setup doesn't run
Expected Results:
hp-setup is not command-line, it requires qt3 bindings
I am sure you can copy a config instead of using the guy configurator - we give
the ability to build without the qt3 depend.
But for your pleasure I added an einfo call after installation that writes out
to the user that he needs the qt3 use flag for hp-setup to be available.

Can I suggest you change
This:
* You need the qt3 useflag enabled to use the guy configurator hp-setup
to this:
* You need the qt3 useflag enabled to use the GUI in hp-setup and hp-toolbox
