Hi Zahid. Welcome to the list. A couple of points of mailing-list etiquette:

* Please don't send formatted text. Stick to plain text only. If
you're using the Gmail web interface, it's easy: click the vertical 3
dots at the bottom-right corner of the compose window and pick "plain
text".

* Please bottom-post. Your reply should go _below_ the trimmed text to
which you are replying. Gmail does this just fine; I'm doing it right
now.

Your previous line conflated 2 things.

The second was:

>   furthermore  http://hplipopensource.com/node/374 --> that link gives 404.

Well, it doesn't here, but it does show an error. However, just trim
/node/374 off the end and you'll get to the drivers page.

How does your phone connect to the printer? I presume you do not plug
the printer into the phone?
