If the laser jet is connected to an HP JetDirect print server, you should
be able to run HP JetDirect Admin. and set up the Mac controls there. I am
working on setting one up right now. It ain't easy, though. But I am
quite rusty with print queues in NetWare 3.12. :-) Good luck.

Subject: [WinMac] Mac printing to HP LaserJet via NT

I can't print from a mac to our Ethernetted HP LaserJet 5M via our NT
server's spool.

All I get is an error message [Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: ]. PC's
can print OK through Ethernet and printing via mac's printer port is also
OK.

I've tried HP LaserJet 8.3.1 and LaserWriter 8.5.1. I've also telnetted to
the LaserJet and set EtherTalk active but this didn't help either.

As usual, our support staff don't want to learn macs (they almost got me
into believing that there was no Exchange client for mac!).

Any help is appreciated,
