Did someone know how to print true a network with MS-Dos program (clipper)

With Win2000 and XP

receive an error print message

Printer not ready
BUT...
I have a solution
I connect a IEEE 1284 cable to my HP 2430dtn and... no more problem, i can
print with Dbase3 and Clipper program. The good thing is, i let the network
connection on the printer and i can use the network connection with Vista
and others XP computers. I just need to print DOS program on one computer.
