 Do you know if there is a Linux driver for the P1005 Laser Printer.
 I am running PCLinuxos 2008 and The printer is not recognised.
 Your thoughts will be most appreciated.

Hi,
I have this printer, and it works great.
Had your problem with Suse 11 (was a little surprised) and the Suse hplip
package wouldn't work, it 
'saw' the printer but no print jobs would come out.
The way i get it working is bypassing any distro specific package and
downloading the hplip software from
http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html 
hope that works for you :)

Hi to all,
Do you know if there is a Linux driver for the P1005 Laser Printer.
I am running PCLinuxos 2008 and The printer is not recognised.
Your thoughts will be most appreciated.
