The drivers generally already included with ghostscript.  To have them built you'll have to re-compile ghostscript with the hl1240 device added to the ports scripts/configure and \$(DD)hl1240.dev in scripts/configure.batch.

Note: For some reason my current ghostscript source is missing the gdevhl12.c source code???
