Ayman,

AFAIK the HP Printers got an web interface within the JetDirect(i don not know if wireless included in there) when going to the I/O menu you can set the IP-address of the printer(if LCD display available)

then contact the webbased configuration menu by http://your-chosen-IP-address.

Roderik.

Yuo may install arabic ghostscript font
in ghostcript directory
usual /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts
cups uses these fonts to print files.
If you don't find a suitable arabic ghostcript font you may use wprint.
