Bryan:

  I think CUPS has the capability to do network printing. However
Icould not get CUPS to work and used the regular lpd spooler printing
instead. I can post instructions on lpd using *.ppd files, if you
want. As for the HPLIP, I know little about it. I saw this link:
HP Linux Imaging and Printing
http://hplip.sourceforge.net/install/index.html
I bet you can run this in /emul/linux/usr/bin/

  Again if you want the lpd instructions for using foomatic-rip and
*.ppd, I can post them here.
