I use the following settings for our HP1055CM. I have had problems with the
plotter with any other settings I have tried. This one works great. I have
had zero problem with it. Notice, I have created a [ raw ] printer type in
ifhp.conf.

printcap:
  prd050:
    :tc=.common:cm=HPDJ1055CM (CC3) New Products:
    :rp=raw:rm=prd050.haulpak.com:
    :ifhp=model=raw,status,sync=ps,waitend=ps,pagecount@:
    :tc=.ifhpfilter:tc=.spooldir:

ifhp.conf:
  [ raw ]
  text
  pjl
  ps
  pcl
  file_output_match = [
    *gzip_compressed*  filter  \%s{gzip_decompress}
    *             raw
  ]
