Hi Paulo, I'm one of Shao's friends who uses a hp1100 (great printer btw).
To get it printing under Debian I use magicfilter. The other software - gs or gs-aladdin, lpr or lprng is purely your choice. To set up the printer type (as root): magicfilterconfig (delete /etc/printcap if you have one already) The config util will then ask the standard stuff - what do you want the name of the printer to be, what port is it connected to etc Then, when it asks you what filter you want, use the ljet4l filter (I'm not sure if a filter exists just for the hp1100, but the 4L filter has so far handled everything I've given it). Then you'll be ready to print. Hope this helps.
