With HP, by and large, you don't need to install their own drivers.
Here, I install hplip and drivers (from the repos).

I used to use a Business Inkjet 1200 without problems, and currently use
an Officejet 6700 multifunction device (print/scan/fax).  Okay, so not a
laser, but even so....

So long as you don't buy the latest and greatest, drivers should be
available.  You can check hp-ppd in Sid at https://packages.debian.org
to see what devices are supported.
