I have net-print/hplip-2.7.9-r1 installed with this USE flags: -X -doc -minimal -parport +ppds -scanner -snmp. If I try to emerge it with the X USE flag, I get a circular dependency error (dev-python/qscintilla-2.1 and dev-python/PyQt-3.17.3). My printer is installed and working fine, but I can't run hp-align.

Confirmed, thanks for reporting this, but it's not a printing issue. I could break the loop by first emerging qscintilla with USE=-python. This stuff seems to be owned by both the python and qt teams, so I tossed a coin and python won the bug (qt goes in CC though). > My printer is installed and working fine, but I can't > run hp-align. Most of the stuff in the hplip driver requires PyQt, so I would suspect hp-align does. In case I'm wrong feel free to open a new bug about this. Note though that neither upstream nor I recommend to install without the GUI. So if you file a bug about this, make sure you investigate it as much as you can, as this is the best way to move it to the top of my priority list in such a case (i.e. minor issue triggered by non-recommended use). Denis.
I remember using hp-align from the command line at least once, so probably at some time PyQt was optional, but it doesn't seem to be anymore :( I ended up with two error reports in one: circular dependency and crash. Should I open another error report? Honestly I can't help with much more insight, I don't know how to code (or read code).
Doesn't matter anymore. Both issues are fixed in hplip 2.7.10 :)
