Hm. I never saw anything like that. You might try getting the Mandrake
OfficeJet package(s)--there's a Debian package called hpoj that I believe
has a Mandrake equivalent.  Also try searching Mandrake forums (or
linuxquestions.org) for that particular model, you'll probably find
someone who has set up that exact model.
