The printer CANNOT be added as a network printer. SAM calls HP JetDirect LAN cards "network" printers, which is a proprietary HP protocol. You add the printer as a "remote" printer. Remote printers use the Unix rlp protocol on port 515 which is common to Unix and PC servers. Note that you will not have access to any -o options like -olandscape or -oduplex.

[John Guster]

request an IP for this printer, configure the printer and bring it up.
on the rp8420 system, ping this IP to see if it is up. If it is up, do:
1. /opt/hpnp/bin/jetadmin or /opt/hpnpl/bin/hppi depend on which one your system has
2. Configuration (supper-user only)
3. Add printer to local spooler
4. ....Choose printer type 1 .....
5. update /etc/hosts to add this printerâ s name and IP
6. lpstat -a should show your newly added printer. This printer is called a network printer.
Cheers!
