I had successfully set up an HP Laserjet 1000 some time ago. You need to download the firmware and 'cat' it to the device whenever you plug the printer in (or switch it on). The printer will not function otherwise. Instead of manually uploading the firmware each time - you can set up hotplug to automatically do it for you.
To top it of, IIRC, the firmware has been removed from all official HP download channels. Try searching for lj1000.exe (or a similar sounding filename) on Google to see if someone else has put the firmware up for download.
