Yesssss!!!
Okay so I cheated a bit. The other printer had a newer version of the Jetdirect. Worked right off the bat from IPX/SX with Win98. Also found the manuals in a box at my shop. No kidding I had about three cases of manuals that came with all this computer stuff I got. Manuals weren't very helpful though.
1st: problem was : HP's site sucks
2nd: I treated the printer as a whole while working with it. Even though the Jetdirect is inside the printer, it's still a unit that must be worked with independently. The printer is just a printer (D'oh!)
3rd: I read off of HP's site that if you had problems connecting, reset it to factory settings. Not good when you don't know what the hell you're doing.
Thanks for all your help.
