OK. The steps were: (I have a German version but try to translate. If I am unsure I write the German word) 1. delete all the printers 2. "verwaltung" - add printer 3. Name HPLaser 4. Continue 5. Device LPT #1 6. as modell choosed HP LaserJet PCL 6 CUPS(en) 7. klicked add printer and logged in as root 8. Message that printer was added succesfull 9. klicked on printer and printed a test page. 10. seeing that only senseless things are printed. This is what I have done.
