As far as I know it HAS to add some options to the menu of your printer, so
you woundn't have a way to set the IP address et al. There is something
wrong with your printer, interface or installation.
In windows XP you just add a TCP port. In older OS...who knows?

What OS are you using? On my HP 4 Si there is
software called jetadmin
(different versions for 9x and 2k). Basically you use the printer control
panel to setup the card, and the software allows you to change any
setting
you like from another PC.
Software seems hard to find these days for older systems.
I was expecting the jetlan card to add some menu options to the printer,
but
it looks like that didn't happen. I think you need the software. The
printer predates (the wide-spread use of) the internet. In the past, I've
found that old but uncommon information like that just didn't make it out
there.
It's not a big deal. I can always use a parallel cable.
