Have you checked out linuxprinting.org? (See for example,
http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-PSC_1210
for comments on how others have used the printer.) I only skimmed the
comments, since I'm not sure what kernel, etc. you are using.

I have only used a different model HP using the hpoj package to support
scanning also (in which case you use the HP ptal interface to the printer
rather than plain usb), so I'm not sure about other differences without
hpoj support.
Sorry not much help.
Good luck.
