    I don't have the link handy but go to the HP site and search for
    Linux. Follow the links. I think you can also find them off of the
    linuxprinting.org site.

    Install the HP drivers. I found that they worked like a charm for me.
      Follow the readme as there is a message about changing the settings
    in Gimp.
