Printing via HP JetDirect 500 in 10.2
Authored by: mguske on Sep 21, '03 02:05:26PM

Hi,

using the WebJetAdmin Tool doesn't work with VPC 5.01 - however :-(
The solution is: get a friend with a Windows-Box and do it with the Windows-Box.

I also tried to use this tool to update the firmware from 7.03 to 8.49, but as mentioned before - not with VPC 5.01....

So I only have a JetDirect 500 X with firmware 7.03.

I can print to a at port 2 connected HP LJ 4050 via AppSocket/HP Jet Direct.

But I also want to use a to port 1 connected OfficeJet G85.
Does anybody know how to do that?
HP AIO doesn't work, and I don't see an appropriate HP-Printer in the List "Select Printer Model".

And if I try to connect to the Embedded WebServer of the HP JetDirect 500 X it only answers: "Macintosh OS is not supported to run this application."

There is a thread where people talked about how they got around various issues with that stupid javascript. Look at the source code; javascript check for 'Macintosh' right in there. Easiest way I found was to use OmniWeb's compatibility prefpane and set it to Windows IE 5.5.
