It's been a little while since I tried this, but it did work.

In the npconfig.pub.sys definition for the printer, add the following two
lines:

     snmp_enabled=false
     tcp_port_number=n

where n=2501 for the serial port and n= 3001 or 3002 for the parallel ports.

Subject: Network printing and Intel Netport Express


Has anyone tried to use as a network printer from the HP3000 a printer
connected to Intel's Netport print server boxes?  We have done this with
printers using the JetDirect card but Intel's boxes have 2 printer ports and
there doesn't seem to be a way to specify what printer port on the Netport
should be used by the HP and apparently there is no default.

Thanks,
