It does print directly from the parallel port. So it must be a problem with
the jetdirect. Still seems odd that only the two XP PC's have this problem.
I can still print through the same jet direct.
I'll look for new software for the jetdirect.
Why would NetBIOS make a difference? Isn't the jetdiret a tcpip device?

Don't remember whether I saw this on the thread or not, but can you print
directly to the printer via the local parallel port? If not, could be XP
print services is messed up.

A HP2500CM is attached to the HP500X jet direct. The IP address from the
test page matches the address I used to set up the jet direct. I didn't use
the HP wizard, if I remember correctly it didn't' work well with XP. The
"add printer" function does recognize the HP500X and correctly asks for the
parallel printer port (it has three).
Remember, this worked Friday. I can still print to it from another computer
on the network. The only thing I can find is that neither XP PC will ping
the jetdirect.
The win2k server and my win98 pc do ping the jetdirect.

Print off a test page by holding the button on the jet direct down and see
what the IP information is. What printer is attached to jet direct? What
type of port did you create on the XP box for that printer? HP has a
network install printer wizard.
Are you using that?

I deleted the printer from the Win200 server. Didn't see "refresh" anywhere
under configure port. I deleted it from the WinXP box. Tried to add it as
a local printer but XP won't let you do that. Either a 'power user' doesn't
have enough privileges to do so or XP is "smart" enough to know that a local
printer is not plugged in. I logged in as administrator, added the
jetdirect as a local printer, install ed driver and printed a test page. It
just sits in the queue until it times out. The printer status is ready.
The plot thickens. The server will ping the jetdirect, my win98 will ping
the jetdirect, both XP boxes refuse to ping the jetdirect. We all run
through the same HP switch. All of their other network drives, CAD,
Vantage, etc work just fine.
Any ideas? Everybody swears up and down they didn't change anything.
