Hello!  I am trying to redirect an HP JetDirect's output TO A COMPUTER (or 
a network) instead of a printer.  Here's the scenario I'd like to set up.

Currently, I have a wallplate with active ports for two seperate University  
networks. The 2 networks do not "see" each other, in any way except for IP 
addresses.

I have a HP Jetdirect 170x outputting print jobs sent by network A, to a 
laser printer, via parallel/centronics port.  Unfortunately for us, our 
building only has 1 "network A" port, and it's quite a distance, so 
whenever we tell our headquarters print server (in another state!) to print 
to this printer, we need to walk through a few buildings to get it.

Network B is a subnet within our University's network.  I'd like to find a 
way to make the Network A port (or the JetDirect attached to it) print to a 
printer attached to Network B.

In other words, it would be nice (but perhaps not possible) to plug the 
JetDirect box into a Network B COMPUTER, so it could print to any printer 
shared to Network B.

I know I can do this with a wireless print server, but I don't want a 
wireless solution.  

Does anyone know of this is possible?

Thanks for any info!

-Mike
