I had some really old JetDirects that didn't support the web interface.
I flash upgraded them and they then supported the web interface. So I
suspect they would have also supported LPR then as well if they didn't
already.

I once encountered a REALLY old internal JetDirect for a LaserJet 4
series
printer that acually didn't support LPR.  It had an slot to add memory,
so I
assume that you could add LPR functionality if you wanted to.
Unfortunately
I do not recall its P/N.

If you're using JetDirects that have been manufactured in the last 8
years
or so you should be OK.

Many thanks. It looks as though at least one thing this month may
actually
go smoothly.

I've been using the 300x models which support LPR and I'm pretty sure
the
170s do as well.  There is documentation for them on HP's site that
walks
you through setting up a "Standard TCP/IP print port" (which is LPR).

I'm in the process of replacing a couple of hundred old PCs with HP
T5300
terminals. Some of the PCs share printers for other users so I need some
JetDirect units to support them. All the JetDirects I've used in the
past
have supported LPR printing but I can't find statements on the HP
website to
say whether current models do.

Does anyone happen to know? I'm most interested in low-cost units like
the
170x range.
