Bob, do you know if this printer has EVR worked on any Linux? I;d suggest connecting it directly to a USB port on the computer you're workin g with and see if it can be made to work that way. If not, thenyou're probably just wasting time wth a more complicated configuration. an other t4est would be to see if that print server works with any other brand/model of USB printer from that Linux machine. If HP has user forums (fora, in proper Latin) for hplip, you may want to inquire there. I sorta recall having heard that the cheapo 10xx series HP printers need to have a firmware download from the printing host, so maybe the D-link is somehow getting in the way of that.
