* Where find driver for HP printers?

Go to

  http://hplipopensource.com

and follow instructions.

* How about LJ 1020?

This printer is supported by the foo2zjs free software printer driver.

The printer is faster than the LaserJet 1000 and has a USB connection. It has only 2 MB of
RAM and 32 kB of ROM.

The firmware of the printer must be uploaded after turning it on. You can use a
hotplug/udev script which comes with foo2zjs, or do it manually:

  cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1020.dl > /dev/usb/lp0
