Linda You absolute beauty!!
Worked first time from the 95 machine. Not sure about 98 as it's being used by member of family. I confidently expect it to work though. This needs to go into a FAQ somewhere. Not the *ideal* solution for a large network but it works! Many thanks Kind Regards Ashley In case it helps others my steps were: 1/ plug printer cable from win pc to printer 2/ use start-settings-printers on win machine to create new Hp4p printer locally attached and print test page. 3/ go to ports page on properties page of printer and add new port \\HOSTNAME\<prnname alias> (In my case I had a printer set up on Linux box called 'prn_linux_hp4p' with an alias of 'hp4' 4/ Do a test print, hear linux box disks whirring, lights flash and paper ejected with expected Win test print page.
