Still way too heavy:

The following NEW packages will be installed:
  hplip-gui libart-2.0-2 libqt4-designer libqt4-help libqt4-scripttools
  libqt4-test libqtassistantclient4 libqtwebkit4 python-qt4 python-qt4-dbus
  python-renderpm python-reportlab python-reportlab-accel python-sip
0 upgraded, 14 newly installed, 0 to remove and 60 not upgraded.
Need to get 16.8 MB of archives.
After this operation, 68.3 MB of additional disk space will be used.
 
16.8 MB compressed CD space for a second printer admin tool seems quite excessive. Can we strip down the dependencies?

Bug description:
  Now, where Ubuntu/Xubuntu/Edubuntu (Oneiric) has Qt on the desktop CD,
  we can get the full functionality of HP's printer driver suite HPLIP
  into the GNOME-based flavors of Ubuntu. We only need to seed hplip-gui
  and users get the HP Toolbox (hp-toolbox), the GUI for sending faxes
  (hp-sendfax), the GUI for the automatic download of firmware files
  (hp-plugin), ...

  So we should add hplip-gui to the desktop seeds.
