*big pat on the back*

One minor point, you use OJ to mean "Office Jet". If someone asked me for
an OJ, I would give them an orange juice.

Please excuse the bad pun:
"Linux OJ driver" => "linux orange juice driver" *ROFL*

Perhaps a little arm twisting here might help....

Since all the information is distributed on CD-ROM perhaps HP may give you
an old copy once off for free. HP are known to be "very generous" when it
comes to educational discounts (so much so that there was a practice where
they gave software to universities because it costed them more money to
process the invoice than they were charging).

Good luck!!!
