As far as I remember, you can use the "normal" HP Laserjet 4
PCL or PS drivers (in case the 4+ is PS capable, but PCL 5 won't
be a problem for it). I've used a LJ4 with apsfilter for a very
long time happily, now using a LJ4000 with the same driver.

I'm not convinced that there's a special driver neccessary, but
maybe you'll find something in CUPS + foomatic (from ports).

Maybe /usr/ports/print/hplip?
