Fellow admins,
Thanks to everyone who replied so quickly to my question about interfacing a
HP750C with a JetDirect card to Solaris 2.X machines. Original question
follows below but the answer was to download the HP JetAdmin software for
FREE from the HP Web site (www.hp.com:80/cposupport). Thanks goes to:

Original question:
> I have a JetDirect card installed in a HP750C plotter runnning TCP/IP. I
> have successfully configured the card for the network and can telnet to the
> plotter. What I'm having trouble with now is configuring my LX and Sparc 10
> to talk to the plotter. I've tried to use Admintool to do this and the
> problem seems to be that a plotter sitting directly on the network without
> a host machine is not truly a 'remote' or 'local' printer as far as Admintool
> is concerned. Am I missing something? I've also called HP support and was
> told that I need to buy the JetDirect software for Solaris. Is this my only
> option (reason I ask is I have previously configured HP plotters without the
> software under SunOS 4.X)? Thanks and I will summarize.
