Confused

I couldn't understand what IP addresses had to do with your problem, until I reread your original post and saw the word 'server' between usb and attached to SCO.
My original concept was that the printer was directly connected to the USB port on the SCO box, but now I think that you are using a box similar to a HP JetDirect with usb ports instead of parallel. If so have you set up the printer using the HP Network Printer Manager (option 2), or the Printer Manager (option4) in Printers in scoadmin.

lpq - show printer queue status SYNOPSIS
lpq [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h server[:port] ] [ -P destination[/instance] ] [ -a ] [ -l ] [ +interval ] DESCRIPTION
lpq shows the current print queue status on the named printer. Jobs queued on the default destination will be shown if no printer or class is specified on the command-line. The +interval option allows you to continuously report the jobs in the queue until the queue is empty; the list of jobs is shown once every interval seconds. OPTIONS
lpq supports the following options: -E Forces encryption when connecting to the server. -P destination[/instance] Specifies an alternate printer or class name. -U username Specifies an alternate username. -a Reports jobs on all printers. -h server[:port] Specifies an alternate server. -l Requests a more verbose (long) reporting format.
