What problem did you have? I just added a direct queue to our LJ4000
jetdirect port. Took about 30 seconds, and works fine. (Normally, I
go through our NT queue.) I didn't use a specific PPD for it as I
normally would since I don't know where it is, offhand.
I didn't try going to the LPR port on the jetdirect, that's usually
pickier since you have to know the queue, but assuming you've got the
CUPS web admin set up, it should be easy.
