Wow.... after a frustrated day, finally i can install HP LaserJet on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.
Straight to the step!!!

1. Download the HPLip from here
2. Execute the file "sh hplip-3.10.9.run" then just choose automatic for the installation way then follow and answer nicely every question and command :).
3. After the re-plug (or if you fail or choose to restart, you could just run "sudo hp-setup -i" again) and choose usb (for me).
4. If the hp-setup asking for the plugin, just choose to download it and it will be downloaded automatically.
5. After the installation is finished, YOU MUST HAVE SWITCH-OFF AND THEN SWITCH-ON AGAIN your printer!!!! This is what i miss and make the headache all the day, after that just try to print a test page from your CUPS.

Hope to save your days guys, have a nice ministry....:)
