Sigh...
I wished HPLIP upstream would pay a bit more attention to issues
when Linux distributions build their software from its sources
than to tell everybody to download the newest HPLIP version
and install it via the HPLIP installer, compare
https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1018303/comments/2
I submitted hplip to "Printing" via submitrequest 149796
and forwarded it to openSUSE:Factory as submitrequest 149797
with this RPM changelog text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Create /var/log/hp/tmp/ directory that is needed by hp-sendfax
as a workaround until HPLIP upstream implemented it correctly
see https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1016507 (bnc#800312).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The /var/log/hp/tmp/ directory is installed as
drwxrwxr-x root lp /var/log/hp/tmp
I assume adding the user to the group "lp" is required
so that hp-sendfax works for this user because otherwise
the user cannot write in /var/log/hp/tmp
