The printer-driver-postscript-hp package is not empty, it contains a
file with all PostScript PPDs for HP printers inside, compressed. The
file is

/usr/lib/cups/driver/postscript-hp

You see all its content via

lpinfo -m | grep postscript-hp

and especially it contains the PPDs for all variants of LaserJet 4
PostScript ptinters:
