It's an HP LJ P4515, and it works well now that it is setup.
To find the Linux driver, I went from the printer's web page to the HP
support site to the HPLIP site. The first time, my browser crashed.
The second time, I didn't see anything obvious to download. Then I
gave up and hacked the Mac PPD. Now, in hindsight, I see that
hplip-3.10.6.tar.gz has a suitable PPD. I found the process much more
difficult than it should be.
