I have a HP PPD "HP LaserJet P2015 Series Postscript (recommended)"
from the newest HPLIP 2.7.7 here and therein the PCFilename is
"HPP2015.PPD".

The CUPS printer test page determines the values of the whole
imageable area of the PostScript interpreter.


You may do something like
echo "A4" | lp -d <queue> -o PageSize=A4 -o page-border=single
and
echo "A5" | lp -d <queue> -o PageSize=A5 -o page-border=single
to check if the printer prints different according to the selected media
size (regardless which paper size is actually loaded in the printer).
