Have you already tried to set up the printer using printerdrake? This will
automatically choose the most suitable driver.
The best driver for this printer is the HPIJS driver (packages printer-filters
and foomatic must be on your system to use it). Configuration of the printer
with this driver can be done with printerdrake or the KDE Printing Manager.
Also GIMP-Print is a good driver (you need the packages libgimpprint1 and
cups-drivers on your system). To configure your printer with this driver use
printerdrake (in Expert mode), the KDE Printing Manager, or the web interface of
CUPS.
The drivers you mentioned are known to have a bad quality and they probably do
not work with all DeskJet models, whereas HPIJS and GIMP-Print have special
modes to support all the meny different DeskJet models.

description:
I am running current cooker and I have set up my HP Deskjet 832C as an available
printer.
I was given the choice between
HP Deskjet Series CUPS v. 1.1
HP New Deskjet Series CUPS v. 1.1
and I chose the former since it seemed to be the default.
I also chose the colormodel to be CMYK because it was the default.
Then I printed the test page and all the black colors (the borders and the text)
were blue instead of black.
The resolution in the colored graphics seemed to be much below the 300 DPI that
I had specified.
I tried to switch to a grayscale colormodel and printed the test page, but it
looked the same as with the CMYK colormodel.
