So why do you think, hpijs is not a problem. Of course it is! It is your version of Ghostscript that doesnt have a "ijs" device compiled in. So it can not plug in hpijs as an external modul.

Run

  "gs -h | grep ijs"

It will proof ijs is not amongst your compiled-in devices. Go get ESP Ghostscript and try again. If you are feeliing adventurous, give the new version 8.15beta a spin!
