Bug Description

I just purchased an HP9025 printer and connected via wired ethernet, fixed IP address to my network. I am unable to select a paper tray. system-config-printr only says "Main Tray". Is this a known bug? Can I modify the config files to tell it there is more than one tray? hp-check -t output is attached.

I was able to get it to work by adding this line to the printer's PPD file:

    *InputSlot Top/Top Tray: "<</MediaPosition 4>>setpagedevice"

The PPD file labels #1 as Upper, when in fact it is tray 1, but tray 1 is the lower tray. Seems the top tray, #2 is #4 internally. I think the big problem is that there is no HP 9025-specific PPD file, only a HP 9020 file which I guess covers printers with single trays too. This needs to be fixed, but I have a solution for now.
