I recently bought an HP 6MP and could not get the HP supplied driver to
work. I found that HP are putting their own header in front of the
Postscript header and all I got was 0 byte spool files.

I got things going with the HP Laserjet 4MP driver and PPD supplied with
the printer. Things are working fine.

Cheers,
