HP LaserJet P1102w not working

I'm a total Puppy newbie. Just installed Wary 5.5 on an old 2007 e-machine.

For some reason I can't get my HP LaserJetP1102w to print. It seems to go to CUPS but won't print.

Any suggestions? Everything else works wonderfully.

Can I assume that you have read How to Install Your Printer/Scanner in Puppy at the top of this section?

What driver package, if any, have you installed for your P1102W?

When you ran CUPS, what HP model did you choose?

Are you connected by USB or WIFI?

I have read the "How to Install Your Printer/Scanner in Puppy" documentation. And I could be missing something but it didn't point me in the right direction.

I'm not sure I installed a driver for the P1102w. How do I do that?

I think the best option I found in CUPS was for the P1100 so I chose that. I'll go ahead and double check ...

Thanks for the reply.

Your P1102w needs the foo2xxx_rcrsn-2013.02.05.pet. The download link is at the bottom of the main post. Or get it here. Click the grey Download button on the left.

Are you connected by USB or WIFI?

Do you have this printer working in Windows?
