    The HP LaserJet 1018, 1020, and 1022 Series Printers are optimized
    to support newer Windows operating systems.

    [...]

    The printer is "host-based". This means the printer uses the
    processing power of the computer and Windows software to format
    the print job for the printer. Without the Windows environment,
    the job will not be formatted for printing. For more information
    on host-based printers, see the document Explanation of Host-
    Based Drivers
