I can't blieve it. I've spent hours, on and off, buggering about with this over the last couple of years. I've even bought a HP JetDirect Print Server because everything I could find suggested the printer needed that to go on a network.

Then the instructions for the print server were all gobbledeygook so I gave up and resigned myself to keeping it connected with the parallel cable to an old desktop pc, even though they both had to be on for any other computer to use the printer and the old pc took about a week to boot up!

Then I ask for help in here, and you give me simple instructions, so I print the list of clients and IP numbers, then plug the printer into the router and identify the new IP number on the list so that must be the printer.

Then I get all disheartened when the cmputer doesn't find the printer on the network, but as soon as I tell itr to search for the IP number you showed me how to find, I'm in business and printing over the network!

Honestly, thank you for this - just wish I had you on hand all those months or years ago when I started on this mission!
