Thanks for this, but I don't have a "hp-photosmart_c5300_series.ppd" file. I have "/etc/cups/ppd/Photosmart_C5500.ppd" instead via the hpijs package. I use Ubuntu and they screwed something up, because they have hpijs and hpcups packages but hpcups doesn't appear to ever be used. You can have both packages installed but the system always uses hpijs. If you try to uninstall hpijs it takes hplip with it. I don't know how to get the system to use hpcups.
