I have tried to install my HP Laserjet 1020 On Ubuntu 13.10 And it says installing plugin then nothing happends.  it detects it and all but nothing works.  I tried multple guides online but nothing fixes it whatsoever

A:

You need to install HPLIP driver. 
This driver can be download from Sourceforge via HP website. 
To download and install follow this commands. 
cd ~/Downloads

sudo wget -c "http://kaz.dl.sourceforge.net/project/hplip/hplip/3.13.11/hplip-3.13.11.run"

sudo sh hplip-3.13.11.run

** There is a nice GUI application called hplip-gui .  It is a versatile tool.  Even you can Fax using All-In-One printers with this application. 
sudo apt-get install hplip-gui
