Comment 27 for bug 59409

The two PPD files are:

-rw-rw-rw- 1 dwelch dwelch 5207 2007-12-04 14:56 HP-Fax2-hplip.ppd
-rw-rw-rw- 1 dwelch dwelch 5197 2007-12-04 14:58 HP-Fax-hplip.ppd

HP-Fax2-hplip.ppd is for these models (as of 2.8.2):
hp_laserjet_m2727_mfp
hp_laserjet_m2727nf_mfp
hp_laserjet_m2727nfs_mfp

HP-Fax-hplip.ppd is for all other models (as of 2.8.2).

They should both be in the src tree in the fax/ppd directory.

HP-Fax-hplip.ppd has these nicknames/model names:
*ModelName: "HP Fax"
*ShortNickName: "HP Fax"
*NickName: "HP Fax"

HP-Fax2-hplip.ppd has these nicknames/model names:
*ModelName: "HP Fax 2"
*ShortNickName: "HP Fax 2"
*NickName: "HP Fax 2"

I will post again later with the answers to the remaining questions.
