Thank you Randy, and everyone in this mailing list.

Linuxprinting.org says:

Only works, if it is connected to a Windows machine with HP's "driver" installed. ... 
If you really cannot afford a PCL laser printer, buy at least the Samsung ML-4500 
"GDI" printer, Samsung delivers it with a GPLed driver and people report that it works 
nicely under Mandrake Linux 8.x.

I am really disappointed with that. I hate every `windows only' devices for I barely 
use MS windows. I will try to use it through SAMBA.

Thanks a lot again.
