it would make things easier for both of us if you could provide more specific details. Brand/Model/Age... and other things you think is relevant.. :)

I looked into it and your printer is capable of networking. However I don't believe you will need the card. A simple IEEE 1284 cable should do, unless of course you do not have that port/ then you will need a card. info about your printer can be found at the HP home page here Hope that helps some :lol:
