Hi annelies,

I am sorry to inform you, the Laserjet 1018 is not supported in any Mac envoirnment:

http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01973413

 

You may try the following workaround and check if that may help:

  1. Download and install the following package:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
  2. Open Print & Scan and click the Plus sign.
  3. Select the listed Laserjet 1018.
  4. Click the Use drop-down and click Select printer software.
  5. Select the Laserjet 1022 from the list, add the printer and try printing using the configured printer.

If that does not help you may also try the 3rd party foo2zjs drivers and check if that works:

just found out that pirnting a PDF (from acrobat redaer) doesn't work

if i open it in preview it does work

HP Recommended

Try opening the file using Adobe Reader, then click File > Print.

Click the Advanced button.

Mark the Print as Image option.

Click OK and try printing again, I believe that may help resolving the issue.

 

Otherwise try updating or reinstalling Adobe Reader. it more likely cause the problem as other application do print correctly using the exact same driver..
