How to add PC-attached HP P1102W for CUPS printing?

kn flag

I am trying to add an HP P1102W to an Oracle Linux 7 server so that I can print from CUPS using the enscript command.

Client already has a number of HP MFP 130 printers which are attached to client PC's using USB. The PC's are running Windows 10. I added them to Windows and shared them for "Everyone". I added them to CUPS after downloading ULD using the command:

sudo lpadmin -p Term0101-PS -v smb://printer:[email protected]/HPLaser -P ./Downloads/uld/noarch/share/ppd/HP_Laser_MFP_13x_Series.ppd

A Java program produces bills in the form of individual text files. A bash job running in the background sends the files to printers using:

/usr/bin/enscript -B -d $DEVICENAME -h -M A4 $FILE

Now, they have bought some HP P1102W printers which have been similarly configured and attached via USB to PC's. (No, they can't be connected to the LAN.)

I tried adding the printer using the HP_Laser_10x_Series.ppd file in ULD, but that didn't work; gives an error on the client Windows when the print is sent.

I can't find the PPD file for HP P1102. Some links tell me to install HPLIP while others say that the driver is built into GhostScript or HPIJS or foo2zjs. Look as I may, I just can't find it.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
