I use a PSC2110 and had similar trouble,at the hpoj site

http://hpoj.sourceforge.net/suplist.shtml

you can find install instructions and other links,also see

http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-PSC_1210

With hpoj installed you need to set it up, run 'ptal-init setup'
(without the '....') it looks at paralell/usb ports and if found will
give a default name option [xxx:yyy:PSC1210] if not check -with the 
machine on- /proc/bus/usb/devices to see if it is registered with the
USB system.

  good luck  david
