Hi Till!
Thank you for answering...
Well, I have two versions of an HP 1018 printer in my list of printers,
so I desabled the one called "Hewlett-Packard-HP-LaserJet-1018, which
hp-check doesn't seem to recognise as a printer ("Type: Unknown"), and
enabled the other one. There is still a problem, however, apparently
with the HP_Laserjet_1018.ppd file....
I'm including the output of the hp-check -t command.
Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Tristram
