Using the SAM control panel, I have managed to add a remote printer which hangs off a Netgear PS110 print server. I have assigned an IP address to the print server and added a line to the /etc/hosts file using SAM. I have created the printer - butit does not seem to work correctly (blank pages printing etc..). Should I have done this a different way (I don't want to use SAMBA!)? It is a HP LaserJet 5 - no JetDirect solutions please!! Thank you - a learning UNIX administrator.

Assuming you've done all the right things on the HP ie setup for LJ5, network printer, you might look into the Netgear box and see if there are any config options to setup there(we used to use AXIS print servers which I assume are a similar item) for the printer.

That was a very thoughtful and thorough first answer. Why don't you go ahead and accept that answer and close the question.
