You should open the webinterface of cups in a browser, the adress is http://localhost:631

There you can configure the printers and configure the permissions, who is permitted to print!.

Your best option for this printer may be to spend a couple of minutes to compile and install the modified foo2jzs driver to be found at http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/

This driver is supposed to support your HP LaserJet 1020, which I don't have. But I can say that this particular foo2jzs is the only way I've been able to get the CP 1025nw and the LaserJet Pro P1102w to print properly in Slackware 13.1 and various iterations of Ubuntu. So it may be worth your trying.

Go to http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/ and follow the instructions to install your driver, but before anything else, remove hplip and system-config-printer packages. Then configure CUPS and restart both your printer and CUPS (don't forget to compile hotplug too).
