After checking that I had the needed (foomatic) driver on my system, I
purchased an HP Laserjet 1005 printer.

And fell flat on my face when invoking "http://localhost:631" to install it.  

After completing the installation, the "CUPS" page lists the printer as
present, but the attempt to print a test page fails.  And "hp-toolbox"
lists the printer but says (under Status) Code 1900 Unsupported printer model.

If - instead of invoking the CUPS routine - I use the KDE Printer Wizard, I get
the following advice during the install.

| `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/sihp1005.dl > /dev/usb/lp0".

Unfortunately that guidance is too cryptic for me.

All <advice|pointers to documentation> will be gratefully received.
