Thanks a lot for your answer. Changing the value mentioned above was
not enough, though. The printer was still asking for paper in tray 1.
But changing two more lines also to source 7 really helped to enable
automatic tray selection:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/cups/ppd# diff hp0.ppd hp0.ppd.orig 
2549c2549
< *InputSlot Tray1/Tray 1: "<</ManualFeed false /MediaPosition 7>> 
setpagedevice"
---
> *InputSlot Tray1/Tray 1: "<</ManualFeed false /MediaPosition 3>>

<       <</ManualFeed true /MediaPosition 7>> setpagedevice"

<       <</ManualFeed false /MediaPosition 7>> setpagedevice"

>       <</ManualFeed false /MediaPosition 3>> setpagedevice"

Again thanks for helping, otherwise the (quite expensive) printer
would have been quite useless for our institute!

Best regards
