Enabling appletalk on an HP printer is trivial.
I have never seen any "instability" being introduced into a network by just
adding appletalk unless there is a problem with the jetdirect card.

That said, you may just use TCP/IP to print to the printer.
Ask what the printer's ip address. Use the ip address as the server name.
Use 'raw' as the printer name when you setup a lpr printer.

Good Luck,

I am the lone (and brand new) Mac person in an all Wintel academic
department. The building/department is ethernet wired for Internet
access but computer services runs a NetWare server for file servers
and printing.

Thanks for any and all help.
