Yes, perfect. I got a switch from my friend and changed things as you suggested. That was the problem. Works perfectly now. Many thanks.

>The printer is a HP LaserJet 4000N which is connected via Ethernet
cable to a Linksys Router.

That may be the source of your problems. I do not believe the LinkSys Router will pass the Appletalk protocol. TCP/IP only. The PB 150 with its SCSI/Ethernet adaptor likely can't tunnel the Appletalk over TCP/IP as the later Macs can.

Is it possible to move what is connected where, and connect the printer
and the PB150 to a regular hub or switch to be sure the AppleTalk will be
passed? If not, go buy a cheap 5 port switch (you should be able to get
one on sale for $20 or less), and move everything plugged into the router
to the switch, and then chain the switch to the router.
