I have an HP Officejet 520 working on a simple Win98 network and I did not
have to disable two way communication on the computer the printer is
attached to.  I had to install the drivers from the HP disk on each computer
and then not load the HP manager at boot up on the client machines.  Windows
98 did not have appropriate drivers for the HP but did have drivers for the
two Epson's I also have on the network.  I also enabled the printer for
sharing with the network.
