I finally managed to get consistent colour right from the screen through to the printer. Here's what I needed to do.

The USB Synlogy print server works just fine with Windows. The documentation states that it can only print to a Postscript printer from Mac OS X.

The HP 1015 LaserJet is sadly not a postscript printer - and I didn't spot this requirement before buying the print server.

However - despite the fact that it will detect the printer as a Postscript printer (you can try printing to it if you want to waste lots and lots of paper) - you can get this to work.

Ignore the fact that it says it must be postscript - just use the hpijs printer (see this post) and hey presto - it all just works.

Two machines - a MB Pro and a Mac Mini. One printer - an HP 1015 LaserJet.

It doesn't seem to be listed in the standard drivers - but with a little help from linuxprinting it will work.

1. Head to http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/
2. Grab both hpijs-foomatic-2.0.2.ppc.dmg and espgs-7.07.1.ppc.dmg and install both
3. Add a printer using the HP LaserJet 1015 Foomatic/hpijs driver
