    To get all functionality of this printer working under Linux,
    especially also the non-printing features, like printer status and
    toner level, use the &lt;a
    href=&quot;show_driver.cgi?driver=hplip&quot;&gt;HPLIP driver
    package from HP&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;p&gt;

    Cheap, compact desktop laser printer, foldable tray for 150
    sheets, A4/Letter/Legal, up to 14 pages/min. Somewhat faster than
    the LaserJet 1010, &quot;Fastres 1200&quot; resolution enhancement.&lt;p&gt;

    HP classifies this printer as &quot;host-based&quot; whereas they claim the
    HP LaserJet 1015 to understand PCL 5e. But the HP LaserJet 1010
    and 1012 seem to understand a stripped-down (raster-graphics only,
    no text) variant of PCL 5e.&lt;p&gt;

    Rick Richardson (rickr at mn dot rr dot com), author of the
    &quot;foo2zjs&quot; driver (driver for the HP LaserJet 1000/1005),
    has examined the output of the Windows driver for this printer and
    found out that the language looks like PJL + PCL 6 (see report
    on the HP forum on OpenPrinting).&lt;p&gt;

    Adam (madaman at web dot de) reports on the HP forum on
    OpenPrinting that the HP LaserJet 1010 works for him with all
    raster drivers for the HP LaserJet 1100 (HPLIP,
    &quot;ljet4&quot;, &quot;lj4dith&quot;, &quot;gimp-print&quot;). Adam tried also PCL-6 drivers
    (&quot;lj5gray&quot;, &quot;pxlmono&quot;) but without success.&lt;p&gt;

    Unfortunately, the new LaserJet 1010/1012 series seems not to
    be absolutely compatible with older HP printers or it has a
    firmware bug. Sometimes it happens that the printer stops working
    and reports the error &quot;&lt;tt&gt;Unsupported Personality:
    PCL&lt;/tt&gt;&quot;. It only continues working when one kills the job
    and power-cycles the printer.&lt;p&gt;

    The problem of the &quot;&lt;tt&gt;Unsupported Personality:
    PCL&lt;/tt&gt;&quot; was finally solved by Carl Michal (michal at
    physics dot ubc dot ca). By analyzing the output of the Windows
    driver he found out that after the BeginSession operator in the
    beginning of a PCL 6 job a special sequence of 8 bytes has to be
    added. He added it by a filter to the output of Ghostscript's
    &quot;pxlmono&quot; driver and from then on the printer worked (Implemented
    as the &quot;pxl1010&quot; driver on this site).&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
