[Cooker] HP driver always install - WHY?

I trying install the printer - Samsung multifunction device CLX-3175 - I
click in the MDV Linux Control Center 2010 "Set up Printer...". I see
the window with ask: "-task-printing-hp".

I still not select printer - so why is installed HP soft? Not every
printer works with HP driver.

click : [install]

next window with:
gutenprints-ijs
hplip*
lib64ijs
and as mentioned above: task-printing-hp*

Is this packages needed in any reason also if my printer doesn't use HP
driver?
