RE: Configuring a IPDS HP Laserjet 5000 on V3R2

To print to a LAN attached IPDS printer, you need PSF/400.

It's an optional part of the OS that you have to pay extra for.  
On v5r2 it is shown this way:
LICPGM    Option  Feature  Description
5722SS1   36       5112    OS/400 - PSF/400 1-45 IPM Printer Support  
5722SS1   37       5113    OS/400 - PSF/400 1-100 IPM Printer Support 
5722SS1   38       5114    OS/400 - PSF/400 Any Speed Printer Support 

on older versions the speed ratings are lower.

If you don't already have it installed good luck trying to find it.

You could also discard the IPDS simm and simply use Host Print Transform and
use the printer as a LAN attached ASCII printer.  In which case you can use
LPD/LPR or the LexLink protocol (requires Lexmark/IBM network adapters).

The PCL and SNMP drivers didn't come out till v3r7.

Good luck,
Charles
