(Get the code!)
At least in 8.10, you need to first install the package python-qt3 to be able to run hp-setup with graphical interface and setup the printer correctly. Beware that you NEED the gui since it's the only way to select force-installing the firmware.
The correct steps would be:
sudo aptitude install python-qt3
sudo hp-setup
On the hp-setup graphical interface:
Select the device type and hit next
Select the device and hit next
Select to Download and install the plugin from site (this will trigger a download on the terminal window that will take some time)
Select the recomended PPD
Fill the wanted data such as name and description and Finish
