I feel like I'm on familiar territory here with HP's lack of legacy support for peripherals such as scanners and printers. See my popular post on.
HP Easy Scan uses the Apple ICA scan protocol and will work with any HP device that is supported by an ICA scan driver. Make sure that you have installed the. Learn about using a scanner in OS X so that you can scan text documents, photographs, and so forth into files on your Mac. Note: Your scanner may be part of a multi-function printer; see Printing for details about managing printers.
That was 7 years ago. I still have the same printer and scanner and I'm determined to make them work. And stick it to the man. Even though my dad works for HP. Especially because my dad works for HP. It's worth the rigmarole, not just for the money you will save by not having to buy a new printer, not just because you will be defeating HP's selfish and wasteful (but understandable for business reasons) built-in obsolescence, but because it will make you feel like this.
1) Install from the App Store. 2) Open Terminal (by typing cmd + space and typing Terminal and pressing return - the first few letters are usually enough).
Type xcode-select -install in the Terminal window to install the required command line developer tools. 3) Install by installing the. Packages for other versions of OS X are available on the. 4) To confirm the installation is working as expected, open a new terminal window and type port version and press return.
(I'm assuming you know that you need to press return after typing a command in Terminal, so I'll stop saying that from now onmaybe.) 5) Run the following commands in Terminal to ensure MacPorts is up-to-date and install a few applications:. sudo port selfupdate (you may need to type in your Mac password). sudo port install coreutils. sudo port install wget. sudo port install gsed 6) Install. At this point you may encounter a security warning message if your security preferences prevent you from installing apps from unidentified developers.
I downloaded foo2zjs in my Chrome web browser from (which by default put it in my Downloads folder). I opened the zip file there by double clicking on it. I then typed cd in Terminal, added a space, and dragged the unzipped foo2zjs directory into the Terminal window to save me typing out the full path i.e.
/Users/christopherwhalen/Downloads/foo2zjs where christopherwhalen is my Mac's Home directory. Yours will be different, unless you're also called Christopher Whalen (in which case, hi!). If you did it this way, you should now be in the foo2zjs directory, so skip to step 8.5 below. cd Desktop (to change to your Desktop directory).
wget (to download the compressed file). tar -xzvpf foo2zjs.tar.gz (to extract it). cd foo2zjs (to change into the newly extracted foo2zjs directory). make (to compile foo2zjs)./getweb 1000 (to download the HP LaserJet 1000 firmware file). sudo make install (to install foo2zjs).
sudo make install-hotplug (to configure hotplug). sudo make cups (to restart the spooler if you use CUPS - nope, I have no idea what that does either, but I did it anyway, even though it appears to be optional).

Hi Claude, The solution to the above error that worked for me is the following (on Mojave 10.14 OS): After the error message saying 'Install Software Development (gcc) package', install XCode from App Store. Then from terminal install the command line tools, if not already installed with the XCode installation: 1. $ xcode-select -install 2.
Run $ make again - if the same error occurs then just give the audience what they want: manually copy the stdio.h from XCode installation directory to /usr/include/ For this it is necessary to find where is stdio.h already copied in XCode installation folder by running: 3. $ find /Applications/Xcode.app -path './usr/include/stdio.h' You’ll get several folders which can be used as source. Then execute 4.
$ sudo mkdir /usr/include to create the folder, if it is not already created And finally 5. $ sudo cp /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/stdio.h /usr/include - the source folder is the output of the find command from the 3rd step All this is necessary since the Makefile is configured in such a way that requires stdio.h in /usr/include, otherwise the error mentioned above is issued: $ cat Makefile. @if! Test -f /usr/include/stdio.h; then echo '.' ; echo '. Error: /usr/include/stdio.h is not installed!' ; echo '.'
; echo '. Install Software Development (gcc) package'; echo '. for Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install build-essential'; echo '.' ; exit 1; fi. So, to summarize, after the stdio.h was copied to /usr/include, running 'make' returned no error in my case, so I could run all other subsequent steps. I can gratefully confirm that this post is still valid for 10.14 Mojave OSX. Thanks again Cristopher, without you all our hp 1000 printers would be in the garbage by now.
Regards, Roman. Gene Running Yosemite 10.10.5 Solved a problem When I tried to print anything, I saw the file display in the Print Queue for a split-second, then nothing. I also noticed the Yellow light on the printer was blinking non-stop which means there's a paper-jam, an open compartment or the toner cartridge is not seeded properly; so I opened and closed everything, re-seeded the toner cartridge, then unplugged the printer for 2 seconds, plugged it back in, and it worked!
Thanks for the instructions! All the best, Gene Florida USA. I figured out I needed XCode Command Line Tools in addition to Xcode itself. I also got Mac Ports working. I followed all your sudo commands for terminal.
Everything appeared to load correctly including installing the driver. I selected the printer as suggested and the default 'use' driver.
Everything appeared as if it was working. However nothing was printed. Not.pdf files or TextEdit files. The printer dialogue box identifies the HP Laserjet 1000 and states 'Printer Ready' data appears to be being writing to the print spooler but no printing is occurring! I have a MacPro 2.1 running Lion 10.7.5 Please advise.

I will quote what user 'Matt' wrote below on 23rd of July 2016, it applies in this case too for High Sierra:'all you have to do is make sure the Rootless System Integrity Protection is disabled and the instructions work fine for El Capitan users. To do this, restart your Mac in Recovery Mode (Restart while holding Command + 'R'), go to Utility Terminal.
In terminal type csrutil disable and hit return. Then restart.
It worked in my case, I had the same error on step 8.7: sudo make install in foo2 directory. Hope it solved your problem too. Thanks Matt, Thanks Christopher for this post! Chris, THANK YOU! Our office is tight on cash, but I needed a printer - found one in storage, the old HP Laserjet 1000 (3 of 'em, in fact - nobody else has found Windows or Mac drivers to continue using these things). I used your guide yesterday, and over the course of a few hours, had everything installed. I could see the printer over USB, I could select the foo2zjs driver, etc.
But I just could not print. I would get either a 'Printer not connected' or 'Unable to send data to the printer' error. I gave up, shut down my iMac (OS X 10.9.5) and went home, determined to give it another go in the morning.
SO this morning the same problem arose upon booting up the Mac. I had done the firmware upgrade to the printer yesterday that was recommended (though I think it gave me an error upon executing the terminal command), fyi. I found someone in Apple Discussions who had discovered a link to HP Printer Drivers 3.1 (and was in the process of downloading them (link here case it helps somone else, since this all appears to be voodoo anyway). I had the bright idea to power cycle the printer (which involves yanking the power cord, as there is no power button on this thing). Would you believe - that was the problem?
I am now printing, without having installed the HP 3.1 drivers (though I'm keeping them around just in case for the future). Thanks SO much! Chris you are an absolute legend! Thank you so much! I'm happy to confirm that I got the HP Laserjet 1000 running on Mac OS 10.11 EL CAPITAN!
El Capitan users, all you have to do is make sure the Rootless System Integrity Protection is disabled and the instructions work fine for El Capitan users. To do this, restart your Mac in Recovery Mode (Restart while holding Command + 'R'), go to Utility Terminal.
In terminal type csrutil disable and hit return. Then restart. Once installed, and once you managed to get the printer working, I guess you can go back and reenable this system integrity protection feature which is unique to El Capitan. Chris you rock man! Thanks again:).
