Old printer, meet new PC!

Okay, so this page is really specific, but it may give you hints to how to set up YOUR old printer on Windows 7.
I've got an old hp 1012. I got it for 20 dollars, and got the toner for 70 dollars, so about 80 dollars of commitment got me a b&w laser printer for my old Mac. Hey what a bargain!
Now, I got a new hp windows 7 machine, and I needed to hook up the printer. Of course, my cheap, fast printer won't work on windows 7! so time to check the internet for a solution right?
