Hi. Not completely sure if I have the same bug, but I believe there is indeed a bug in the driver selection.

Here's the output for my P1005:
MFG:Hewlett-Packard;MDL:HP LaserJet P1005;CMD:HBS,PJL,ACL;CLS:PRINTER;DES:HP LaserJet P1005;FWVER:20080415;

I've installed the required plugin from command line so bug #363522 does not apply. However, by default foo2xqx seems to be selected for this printer, which claims working but in reality does not print anything.
When going to change the driver, foo2xqx is likewise marked as "recommended" instead of hpijs.

Manually selecting hpijs instead now gets P1005 fully functional in jaunty, so it should probably be the default driver as well.
