The Xerox printers we have here don't appear to have parallel ports, but
they do have serial ports (as well as some strange other port that looks
kind of like a baby HP-IB port).

I have to ask though, if you could list the printers that you've been able
to make work using a JetDirect EX box -- I was under the impression that
unless the printer hooked to it was a "<Whatever>-Jet", it wouldn't work too
well.  What's the scoop?

To make the HP3000's network printing work in such a circumstance, all that
you need do is insert the JetDirect card into your network (either through a
hub or in-line with your ThinLAN), assign it an IP address, configure a
spool
file on the HP3000, and run a standard PC-to-printer parallel cable from the
JetDirect card to the Docuprint printer. Voila. You should be up and
running.
