Is the following possible:


	HP 4P (or 4Plus)			PC
	w/Jetdirect card			w/Novell's LWP v4.2 (lpr.exe)
		|					|
		|					|
      T------------------------------------------------------------T

Given the above configuration, can I print from the PC using Novell's
lpr.exe utility (part of LWP) *directly* to the HP printer?

Keep in mind that these are the *ONLY* two nodes on the network.
There is no Netware printer queue/spooler nor UNIX printer queue/spooler.

I'm not using Windows for Workgroups.  Only DOS (uggh).

I guess the question really is, "Does the HP 4P (4Plus) handle its
own spooling"?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
