LaserJet 1300 - any suggestions on how to make this work?

You've obtained the Vista drivers & installed as per hp instructions, which
usually means installing software/drivers prior to connecting the printer?

Nothing happened when I plugged in the USB-cable - as opposed to when I
plugged in the USB-cable to my DeskJet F380, where the Vaio simply informed
me that it installed the printer.

No - I did not - I was not aware of this. My previous private pc and the Dell
from work both picked up the printer without any interference from my side -
and the Vaio picked up my Deskjet F380 also without any preparations or
assistance from my side. But I'm willing to try your suggestion - I'll let
you know if it works.

No luck - same reaction from the pc, i.e. nothing.

When selecting add a printer I get a choice between "only use this if you do
not have have a usb-printer - windows installs usb-printers automatically
when connected" and "add a network printer, a wireless printer or a bluetooth
printer...."
