Printing to a HP JetDirect card.

I'll swear that I've seen several messages about this before
so it can't be just me having trouble!

I have got the printcap entry that Linda Richardson managed
to get to work for her LJ4M and blindly used it for my LJIV Si/MX
with JetDirect card (no serial/parallel connection - only
ethernet) but with no luck.

I'm continually told that the Alpha (V3.0 OSF/1) is 'waiting for
xxx to come up'.

I'd also like to use the Alpha to act as a server to all the other
machines - so that I only need to do a fiddle once.

What am I missing? I'd guess that it is the logic to print
directly to the TCP/IP port (number 9100) instead of trying
to contact a remote lpd.

Any suggestions?
