Well, I've got the printer working with RedHat 8.0, Mandrake 9.0 and Gentoo
(Revision is pointless because it is ports based). All three machine use CUP.
Regarding the print filter/driver, go here:

http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_driver.cgi?driver=hpijs

and get your printer system interface. Now, download the hpijs driver (Rev
1.3) and apply the patch that is found at:

http://www.linuxprinting.org/download/printing/hpijs/

to the hpijs driver. Compile/install driver and setup Cups using the printer
system interface. Worked for me everytime....
