I had another round of fight we the issue. My father said that he would switch back to Win if the printer would not start to work soon.
I made some changes to the system: 1) install foo2zjs from sources 2) install foomatic-db-hpijs 3) install foo2zjs from packages and currently I have following error messages: Jul 13 00:06:55 pn HP_LaserJet_1018?serial=KP1A4KL: io/hpmud/musb.c 1381: unable to write data hp:/usb/HP_LaserJet_1018?serial=KP1A4KL: 45 second io timeout Jul 13 00:07:12 pn HP_LaserJet_1018?serial=KP1A4KL: prnt/backend/hp.c 676: INFO: open device failed stat=21; will retry in 30 seconds...
