Ken,

Are you trying to print through the XP box to the printer from your linux box?  I ask because I just looks at my CUPS configuration and I have an option for "LaserJet 1020" as a printer.

Thanks,
Tim.

Folks, thank you for past help.  Here's another one...

I have an HP Laser Jet 1020 black and white printer attached to a PC running
Windows XP Professional.  It is my home network shared printer.  I have no
problem using it from other Windows machines.  I am having no luck using it
from my Linux boxes.  (a Fedora and an Aurora).

The CUPS package does not have a driver for this printer.  I understand that
this laser printer is a bit different from other HP laser jets, but I do not
understand how this relates to my problem.

Without me going into all the details of my guessing game do any of you know
exactly what I should do?
