Ok, I must admit I'm not able to fix the 'foomatic-filters' package,[...]
I have find the ppd on the Linux OpenPrinting site.[...] the ppd was modified [...] because if I extract ppd from the windows driver, then this one don't require the 'foomatic-rip' command.

If they're HP, unless they're plotters, [...] use the generic postscript PPD and you should be fine. [...] You only need Foomatic if you're converting to something off, like PCL for a plotter, or [...] [a printer] that doesn't know generic postscript.
I'm feeling quite stupid because I can't even get a test page to print. The filter problem is stopping all print jobs from proceding. How should I edit the ppd to get things working?
> I removed "foomatic-rip" from lines 36 & 37 of the generic ppd file, which stopped the pre-print message about the filter but now I get this error!
