If you ever need to print to an HP jetdirect printer but don't want to bother setting up the printing manager and CUPS etc, you can just print to a .ps file, (let's call it print.ps), and then assuming the IP address of the printer was 10.0.1.5 you would type this in a term window:
netcat 10.0.1.5 9100 < print.ps
Voila!
netcat 10.0.1.5 9100 < print.ps
Voila!
