Loading ulpt via the loader has the same effect as compiling it into the  
kernel.
Don't do that. You need your printer as a ugen device.

You do have hplip installed? It is in the ports and comes with a  
``hp-setup'' program.
Use filter /usr/local/share/ppd/HP/HP-LaserJet_1010-hpijs.ppd.gz

Maybe this helps: http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/INSTALL
Look for the section "FREEBSD NOTES". It is about uploading firmware to a  
Laserjet 1018.
You probably need to be root to upload.

If your printer is detected by cups, you will still need to replace  
/usr/bin/lpr with /usr/local/bin/lpr for your applications to print.

Check out ``hp-toolbox'', too.
