There seems to be a conflict between what I understood you were trying to do, and what you actually did.
There are two ways to set up a network printer, either RAW port 9100, or lpr port 515.
To set up a printer on port 9100:
Start scoadmin->printers
Take option 1 "HP Network Print Services Manager". this will install the software.
Tale option 2 "HP Network Print manager" run option 6, add the ip address to /etc/hosts first.
This creates a local printer, with a model file in /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces.
You can modify this file to add PCL escape sequences etc.
To set up printer on port 515
scoadim->printers.
Take option 4 "Printer Manager"
select Printer->add remote, enter the ip address and queue name on the device.
You will have to ensure that all PCL escape sequences are embedded in the print file.
There will be a directory created in /usr/spool/lpd named the same as the queue name.
excuse me,
i did probe with cups and no good result.
mi customer will be buy hp4015n if this machine print on sco, and i don't now what say
thank you for your helps

i do telnet 192.168.2.6 9100 and enter, but i don't now what do...
escuse me mi language, i don't speak english..
Does your customer intend to print using PCL5 or Postscript?
If PCL:
Create a text file that has "esc&k2G" as the first line.
If Postscript, ask your customer for a sample text.file.
telnet 192.168.2.6 9100 <text.file
This should print the file.
Try this also with port 515.
You could also set up the printer as a Windows shared printer, and use Samba to connect to it.
I recently installed a HP M4345MFP printer, on port 515, as a remote printer. The only difficulty that I had was determining the PCL escape sequence for tray selection.
thank for you time and patience...
i did like you indicate but not print
