I print pretty successfully to an HP laserjet 2100 (1200dpi!) using pap.
The 2100 does not have ethernet - it is connected through an asante
"AsanteTalk" localtalk to ethernet converter.

Instead of going through the lpr setup, it is possible to simply issue a
command something like this to send a postscript file to the laser
printer:

    pap myfile.ps -p "My laser writer"

Where the name of the printer is the apple talk printer name, as
reported by the nbplkup program. (I think it is a -p option; I'm not at
a netatalk-enabled machine at the moment.)
