Does not work in what way? If you define it as a similar model does
anything print?
HP's web site says it is fully supported.

Hello
hplip does not work with this printer the P1005, that is why I need foo2zjs.
The problem is when I download the driver I don't get a ppd file but
an img file and I don't know what to do with it. I tried to mount
it but it didn't work.There is no explication in the foo2zjs doc.

I have a HP Office Jet 6970 (ink jet) and all I did was install cups

To get lpr to work without cups is a little more adventurous. The
three scripts below should get you started. They depend on unix2dos (I
forget which tools bundle this is from) and gs (which is in
ghostscript). Printing just PS is pretty straight forward. However you
should be aware that firefox and friends are hard coded to use a cups
defined printer. At least I haven't figured out how to fool their
print dialog box. Follow the man pages for setting up lpd.
You need to create an /etc/printcap entry similar to to:
lp|hp_prt:\
:lp=9100@hp_prt:\
:sh:\
:mx#0:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/hp_prt:\
:if=/usr/local/libexec/f_smart:\
:lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:
And f_smart is:
#!/bin/sh
#
# sfif - Print PDF or PostScript or plain text on a PCL printer
#
IFS="" read -r first_line
first_two_chars=`expr "$first_line" : '\(..\)'`
case "$first_two_chars" in
%!|\033%%|%P)
# %! or ESC% or %P : PostScript or ? or PDF job, convert it to PCL.
( echo "$first_line" ; cat ) | /usr/local/libexec/f_ps2pcl && exit 0
exit 2
;;
*)
# otherwise just print it followed by a form feed to eject page
( echo "$first_line" ; cat ) | \
/usr/local/bin/unix2dos && printf "\f" && exit 0
exit 2
;;
esac
And f_ps2pcl:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/bin/gs -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -q -sDEVICE=ljet4 -sOutputFile=- -

Hello
I have a hp P1005 ( I know hp) and I try to install it on opennbsd. So I
installed cups and foo2zjs but foo2zjs download an img file and I don't
know what to do with it. There is no mention of img file in the INSTALL
file.
What do I need to do to make the printer work with the openbsd lpr or cups ?
