Thanks to all that replied.

To connect a HP 4si with a JetDirect network interface to a SUN
the best method seems to be to use the "hpnp" software from HP.

This software provides filters that know how to talk to the HP
printer over the network. A sample printcap follows:

fire|lp:\
        :mx#0:lp=/var/spool/fire/.null:\
        :sd=/var/spool/fire:\
        :sh:\
        :lf=/var/spool/fire/log:\
        :of=/usr/lib/hpnp/hplj.of.sh:\
        :if=/usr/lib/hpnp/hplj.if.sh:
