i have a hp laserjet 1018, i've search about, found a a program called foo2zjs /
http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com //
and some tips here
Quote:
On another OS or with a parallel port connected printer:
You must send a firmware file to the printer each time you power it
up. If you downloaded the extra files for the HP above, a typical
command line to load the firmware would be:
cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1000.dl > /dev/usb/lp0
or:
cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1005.dl > /dev/usb/lp0
or:
cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1020.dl > /dev/usb/lp0
NOTE: The original HP files are named '*.img'. Sometimes HP supplies
these files ready-to-download to the printer, sometimes they are raw
ARM executables and need to have a special header added to them before
they can be downloaded. The "make install" step will use the supplied
"arm2hpdl" program to automatically detect which kind of file they are
and convert them (if needed) to the downloadable '*.dl' format.
