Not sure whether you'll want to hear this, but I have an HP JetDirect
300x driving an HP PhotoSmart P1100 and it works fine from Win2K, XP,
Debian, Mandriva and Xandros.

There seem to be various ways to get to the same device. On Debian it
is "hp:/net/PHOTOSMART_P1100?ip=192.168.1.9", on Mandriva I have it as
"socket://192.168.1.9:9100/", "while on XP, win2K and Xandros it is
"ipp://192.168.1.9:/ipp/port1".
