I am having the same problem. I am trying to print to a hp printer with a
jetDirect card.
Here is the printcap created by the printtool in the control-panel
##PRINTTOOL3## DIRECT ljet4 600x600 letter {} LaserJet4 Default {}
lp:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:af=/var/spool/lpd/lp/acct:\
:lp=/dev/null:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:
What dose not show up here is the ip address, which is correct or the
port. Here I have tried 9100 and 515 and no port.
