Not only had I not considered it, I wasn't even aware such a possibility 
existed. I chose a HP driver with a d suffix,
usr/share/cups/model/HP/hp-laserjet_p2015d_series-hpijs.ppd.gz, and it 
prints, even duplex.

Thank you very much. I was about ready to take the thing back. Maybe I 
should anyway. The damn thing only has a "starter" toner. What crap!

When I asked the salesman if there was another printer that had a real 
sized toner like my old hl-1440,  he said that that is the way they all 
come these days. Well, probably a class-action law suit in the offing 
for some lawyers to make a bundle.
