Well, all these options' choices are totally determined by the PPD file, as you exactly pointed it. I don't know where I find the PPD file (but it was tricky to find), but my printer driver is recognized as `HP OfficeJet Pro L7500 Foomatic/hpijs' (and its URI is `hp:/net/Officejet_Pro_L7500?ip=192.168.0.108', notice that this is a LAN printer). I thought I was using HPLIP, as it's specified at http://www.openprinting.org/printer/HP/HP-OfficeJet_Pro_L7500, but I'm not sure. -- Merciadri Luca See http://www.student.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/~merciadri/ I use PGP.
