I had another round of fight we the issue. My father said that he would switch back to Win if the printer would not start to work soon.

I made some changes to the system:

1) install foo2zjs from sources
2) install foomatic-db-hpijs
3) install foo2zjs from packages

and currently I have following error messages:

Googling I found following link:

and I'm going to try downgrade hplip.
