Creating the file as described in #2 did not help in my case.  I had to:

sudo ln -s /usr/share/hplip/sendfax.py /usr/bin/hp-sendfax

Title:
  hp-setup crashes when adding new printer because hp-sendfax is not
  found

Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I am trying to add a new printer (also for scanning and faxing), but
  this fails because the setup routine for Marvell fax expects hp-
  sendfax, which is not part of the installed package.

  $ hp-setup
