Re: [cups] Problem with cups selecting manual tray on HP laserjet

Thanks for the pretty long list. In alll the attribute listings therein, I didn’t find anything concerning the input bin(s),
and even the job options listed didn’t mention the input bin or things like „manual feed“.

But the several instances denoting the PPD generation only stated that the printer’s PPD has been
generated fromm the IPP attributes requested from the printer, but no details.

Even when looking into the sources from cups-browsed and the driverless utility (using a fairly recent source) 
I found nothing concerning the input bin(s).

To shorten the procedure, could you please do the following:

—	shut down the printer, so that the printer queue and the printer’s PPD get deleted by cups.

—	switch on the printer again
	and possibly print a test file

—	save the printer’s PPD /from /etc/cups/ppd/HP_Color_Laserjet_Pro_M252dw_nnnn_.ppd)
	where nnnn is a ID number generated by the PPD generator
	and send it to me.
