Don't bother. Apparently, it won't work.
I've been trying to get an NetPort Express working for a while.
These boxes don't support Unix style LPR/LPD.
Apparently, it will work with Windows/NT sending it LPR/LPD data, but not
Linux. Everything I try to print to it comes out garbage...even plain
text.
My recommendation (one I'm going to soon be following, myself) is to get
yourself a Hewlett Packard JetDirect...the 170X should do what you (and I)
want.
