Re: Printer problems..
Try not to swear, it's a family-friendly forum.
The packages you're after are cups and hplip. That should be enough for you to print.

After installing and starting the hplip and cups daemons (in that order), you can visit http://127.0.0.1:631/ in a browser to setup the printer with a web-ui.
