[Bug 97646] Re: HPLIP setup new device picks wrong driver
** Description changed: Binary package hint: hplip I tried to install my two printers using the HPLIP Toolbox "Setup New Device...". One is a HP OfficeJet 4200 series which the HPLIP wizard chooses to install an OfficeJet 9100 series ppd file for. The other is a HP DeskJet 9600 series printer which the wizard chooses to install a LaserJet 9000 series ppd file for. It is choosing these "wrong" ppd files because the correct ppd files are not available. This is easily remedied by installing the "hpijs-ppds" package. I believe it would be a lot more common for the average home user to have one of the two printers I have rather than the ones that are available by default. I propose that the "hpijs-ppds" package should be installed by default when the "hplip" package is installed.
