Apple Mac OS X Printer Settings for HP Color LaserJet CP1215 $ /Applications/Utilities/Print Center.app/Contents/MacOS/Printer Setup Utility. Foo2hp is an open source printer driver for printers that use the Zenographics ZjStream wire protocol for their print data, such as the HP Color LaserJet 2600n and the HP Color LaserJet CP1215.These printers are often erroneously referred to as winprinters or GDI printers. However, Microsoft GDI only mandates the API between an application and the printer driver, not the protocol on the wire. PPDs, Print Dialog Extensions, ColorSync profiles, and the HP LaserJet utility are included for the following: hp color LaserJet 4500 hp color LaserJet 4550 hp.

In 2009 I got a HP Color LaserJet CP1215. Unfortunately this printer is not compatible with OS X. Six years ago I managed to install the printer by using open source tools and drivers. In 2012 I got a new MacBook Pro and needed to install the printer again and I wrote about the process on my old blog. Now three more years have passed and when OS X 10.10 Yosemite came out I decided to do a clean install, but I didn't install the printer because I didn't need it. A few month have passed since then and now I needed to use the printer again and thus I had to install it again.

This is part tutorial, part reminder for myself on how to install this fucking printer.

You need GCC to compile C code. In my opinion the best way to get GCC is to install Xcode from the Mac App Store. In Xcode you have to install the Command Line Tools (Preferences > Downloads > Components).You also need Homebrew to install some libraries.Open a Terminal window and install wget and gnu-sed.

Download and install Foomatic RIP and HIPJS for Mac OS X. The page also includes a download for Ghostscript, but I used Homebrew to install it. The links state that Foomatic RIP and HIPJS are for OS X 10.8, but for me they work fine on 10.10 Yosemite.

Next you need to install foo2zjs. Terminal:
