HP LaserJet 1018 needs a plug-in; says HP
so Kyle; HP reckon that you need hplip of 2.7.10 or more; so those in the 3 series do that;
if one looks on the HP listings https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imag ... ices/index it says in the PLUG-IN column, that for your 1018, that a plug-in is REQUIRED
so if you open a terminal and type and hit the ENTER key; I wonder if it downloads a plug-in and installs it; and I wonder if that gets the printer to work?
