Dependsw on how advanced you want to get, that is, what advanced
features you want.
HP-UX 10.20 comes with an interface script for Deskjet 850, which
works with the 870 also, but as for advanced features... well.
There is also a Ghostscript driver for 850/855, which also works
fairly well but as yet can't take full advantage of the printer's
features (it knows about C-Ret and has options for different
media types though). It can be found by following a link from
Ghostscript home page.
There isn't anything for HP-UX that'd allow doing things like
aligning the printheads or even querying the printer about
out-of-paper or out-of-ink status. :-(
