My HP LaserJet 3390 produces the following output:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ubuntu/hplip/svn/pkg-hpijs/hplip/build-area$ 
/usr/lib/cups/backend/hpfax
direct hpfax:/usb/HP_LaserJet_3390?serial=00CNMJP81545 "HP Fax" "HP LaserJet 
3390 HP Fax HPLIP" "MFG:HP;MDL:Fax;DES:HP Fax;"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ubuntu/hplip/svn/pkg-hpijs/hplip/build-area$ 

This is how it should be. It makes CUPS assigning the old fax PPD to
this device.

For the HP LaserJet M2727 (and any other model with the new color fax
capability) I expect the following (I do not have this printer, I only
show how it should look like):

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ubuntu/hplip/svn/pkg-hpijs/hplip/build-area$ 
/usr/lib/cups/backend/hpfax
direct hpfax:/usb/HP_LaserJet_M2727?serial=XXXXXXXXXX "HP Fax 2" "HP LaserJet 
M2727 HP Fax 2 HPLIP" "MFG:HP;MDL:Fax 2;DES:HP Fax 2;"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ubuntu/hplip/svn/pkg-hpijs/hplip/build-area$ 

The PPD should have as model name, short nick name, and nick name "HP
Fax 2" and as device ID "MFG:HP;MDL:Fax 2;DES:HP Fax 2;". Then CUPS
would perfectly assign always the correct PPD file.
