The HP LaserJet 1018 printer stopped working for some reason, although it had worked out-of-the-box. [1] This thread on the Ubuntu forums sorted things tho, specifically using the code below.

$ wget http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/firmware/sihp1018.tar.gz $ tar xvzf sihp1018.tar.gz $ arm2hpdl sihp1018.img > sihp1018.dl $ sudo cp ./sihp1018.dl /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1018.dl $ sudo cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1018.dl > /dev/usb/lp0
