Thanks Alexander,
  one other thing please.
I've put the compressed file in /usr/share/cups/model/ but when I run
system-config-printer it doesn't appear in the list, either under the HP
list or anywhere else. Am I missing something?
The current state of /usr/share/cups/model/ is:

<1024-25>linuxf# ls -l /usr/share/cups/model/
