Has anyone tried to install the HP Photosmart 6510 printer on 11.10?

I have Hplip 3.11.17 but the driver isn't being displayed. This page tells me I require minimum 3.11.10

I have seen on a Dutch forum site that a guy had to install Hplip 3.11.10 to find the driver but that doesn't make sense. Why would a driver only be available in an earlier version of Hplip?!!

Here's the Dutch site if anyone is interested -- second to last post has his solution. (my Dutch is not so great but I understood most of it)

Can anyone shed some light on this, please.

Thank you
