The correct maintainer is the Debian Foo2zjs Team [1], but I would be
glad if Steffen would take all the burden of fixing bugs :-)

Strangely enough I could not find that version anymore on official
Debian mirrors or snapshot.debian.net, so I rebuild it.

foo2zjs_20070718dfsg-8 does not contain any /etc/hotplug/usb/ folder
because these upstream files are binary and thus have been moved to
where they belong, i.e. /usr/sbin.  And the udev rules correctly refers
to the new location:
=====
debian:/home/user/# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/11-hplj10xx.rules

These printers (i.e. the HP P1* series) are not supported by version
20070718dfsg-8, because upstream started to support them on

  2007-11-25	Rick Richardson <rick.richardson at comcast.net>
	* Add printers HP LaserJet P1005/P1006/P1505 to foo2xqx driver.

Are you sure you are not mixing the Debian package with a manual
installation?

If you want to try a first beta of the next Debian package which will
support the HP P1* series, please check bug #466758 [2].

Hope that helps :-)

Thx, bye,
