Current cups + gutenprint not printing for HP LaserJet 1022

Hi, an up to date machine, I was trying to print a pdf through atril, didn't work. I enter to cups web interface (localhost:xxxxx) and I got this message:

"The PPD version (5.2.12) is not compatible with Gutenprint 5.2.13. Please run `/usr/bin/cups-genppdupdate' as administrator."

I ran the above command and got the following message:

/etc/cups/ppd/HP_LaserJet_1022.ppd: no valid candidate for replacement.  Skipping
/etc/cups/ppd/HP_LaserJet_1022.ppd: please upgrade this PPD manually
Unable to retrieve PPD file for /etc/cups/ppd/HP_LaserJet_1022.ppd!
Failed to update any PPD files

any ideas?

You can edit the printer through the web interface and change the selected PPD file to one provided by the current version of Gutenprint. Failing that, you can delete and recreate the printer, but you can usually just reselect a new file.
