    Perhaps it's my misunderstanding - but I thought the jetadmin service
    would act as a "print server" - so it would provide the connectivity to
    CUPS and the rest of the network. I know that CUPS can connect directly
    - using the hpdirect protocol - but I thought I'd get better results the
    other way. I've been having intermittent lockup/timing issues with CUPS
    - both when locally connected via parallel and via network - and I was
    hoping jetadmin would help that.

    BTW - the printer I'm using is a 2500CM. I never had any issues when
    directly connected to a <gasp> Windows unit - so I'm assuming this is
    somehow a CUPS issue. None of my other CUPS printers are showing
    problems like this one is.
