Hi,
I recently got hold of a HP LaserJet 1005. On linuxprinting.org I found
a description of how to upload firmware to it to make it work. However,
every time you turn off/on the printer, you have to upload that piece
of firmware again.
I had the idea to use a printer filter to upload the firmware before
every print job. Unfortunately I don't have enough knowledge to make it
work. The command I want to put in front of every print job is
cat firmware.bin > /dev/usb/lp0
Anyone able to give me a hand in constructing such a filter?
Regards,
