This is a printer problem. Someone may have setup the printer to only accept connections a specific host. There isn't anything you can do on the HP-UX side. The printer has been setup as best as can be expected given that there is no support for non-HP printers in HP-UX. HP is the largest printer manufacturer in the world and there is no incentive to provide support for non-HP printers.

 

The best resource is to contact Xerox tech support and ask specifically for HP-UX information. You'll have to persist as is the case for all printer manufacturers, Windows and Macs is where the market is located, so HP-UX support will be a challenge to locate.
