laserjet 5 compatible w/jetdirect 300x?

[kaystan]

I am trying to get my old Macs (os 9.0) to "see" an HP LaserJet 5 through a JetDirect 300x on an ethernet network. The printer works but does not show up in the chooser. Occasionaly an object named "hp peripheral" will show up. Any suggestions or ideas? This is a school system with a very limited budget.:o :o

You need to make sure there is a Postscript simm in the printer. Print a configuration page and make sure Postscript is listed under installed personalities. If you don't have postscript you won't see the printer.
