We are configuring a new workstation with WinXP Pro to print over a
MicroSoft peer-to-peer network ethernet connection to an HP JetDirect 170
printer server on an HP DeskJect 855c inkject printer.  We understand that
the printer server uses IPX/SPX network protocol only;  however, it appears
that WinXP Pro uses only TCP/IP native and a Novell SPX/IPX as a
supplemental protocol.  Can't seem to make the initial connection using the
HP Install Network Printer Wizard.  Any tips on how we might proceed?  Must
we go find an old Win98SE SPX/IPX protocol and somehow install it?  Another
frustrating upgrade moment.
