Comment 4 for bug 1069521

I've checked what's executed by the installer (.../hplip-install), and it appears that it did :
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-qt4 --disable-libusb01_build
--enable-doc-build --disable-cups-ppd-install
--disable-foomatic-drv-install --enable-foomatic-ppd-install
--enable-hpijs-install --disable-udev_sysfs_rules --disable-policykit
--disable-cups-drv-install --disable-hpcups-install
--enable-network-build --enable-dbus-build --enable-scan-build
--enable-fax-build

That doesn't look OK to me... and explains why the hpijs would be used.

So I've checked the manual install docs at http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install/manual/distros/debian.html and did instead :
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-hpppddir=/usr/share/ppd/HP
--enable-qt4 --enable-hpcups-install --enable-cups-drv-install
--disable-cups-ppd-install --disable-hpijs-install
--disable-foomatic-drv-install --disable-foomatic-ppd-install
--disable-foomatic-rip-hplip-install --enable-fax-build
--enable-dbus-build --enable-network-build --enable-scan-build
--enable-policykit --enable-libusb01_build --disable-udev_sysfs_rules
--enable-doc-build

... and guess what ? This time, it's added with the driver set to : drv:///hp/hpcups.drv/hp-photosmart_6510_series.ppd

... and Tadaaa : the test page uses the full printing space :-)

So... it seems that once proper support for wheezy is implemented, this bug will be solved for debian.
