From http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-LaserJet_1018 :-

"2 Nov 2006 - Just configured this printer (hp 1018) on Ubuntu Dapper. Worthwhile to note is
that you should NOT use the foo2zjs shipped with Ubuntu. It is noted on
the homepage of foo2zjs, and it's true. Just build & install the package from
source, following the instruction on the homepage and it will work as expected."

Their home page is:-

http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/

There are instructions on that page for building and installing the driver.

Can you help with this problem?
