Miscellaneous

Comments
For basic printing functionality use the HPIJS driver . For advanced functionality such as printer status and maintenance features, use the HPLIP driver (which includes HPIJS).
The best output one gets with HP's HPIJS 1.3 or newer. If you cannot update to HPIJS 1.3 for some reason, you can also use HPIJS 1.2.2 with the patches from Matthias Bunte and Richard Spencer-Smith ("hpijs-rss"). The Gimp-Print driver also works (Model setting: "pcl-900"), but only up to 600 dpi.
Older comments:
If you install this printer with the "printtool" program, change RESOLUTION to 600x600 in file /var/spool/lpd/lp/postscript.cfg. Otherwise it will only print in 300x300.
