I don't know what the JetDirect EX does, but the print server in my 'ol LaserJet III doesn't support the lpr protocol. It just accepts connections on port 9100 and prints what it gets there. With lprng you can use "lp=printerip%9100" to access it. You may want to use "nmap" to see what ports your print server is listening to. Setting up apsfilter is simple too. Just tell it you have a local printer but use "printerip%9100" as your device.
