    Hey everyone. I'm running Sarge with a 2.4 kernel. I installed cupsys.
    I am trying to print to a networked printer that has Jetdirect 170x. The
    actual printer is an HP LaserJet 1300.

    In Gnome, I went to Desktop Pref/System Tools/Printing, to install the
    printer. Everything seemed to work fine, but it still does not print.

    The wizard gives me the following options:

    1. Local or Networked printer (I choose Network Printer and then select HP
    JetDirect. For the Host, I'm putting in the IP addresss of the JetDirect
    Box.
    The PORT has a default value of 9100. I did not change this.

    2. Manufacturer (I choose HP). Model (I choose LaserJet). Driver (It
    defaults to "Standard (CUPS) (Suggested). It's either CUPS or "Install
    Driver". I stick with (CUPS) (Suggested).

    I then click "Apply".

    Do I need to install a driver, and not use the CUPS? If so, how do I
    install the driver?

    thanks for the help...
