Nice to know ive just wasted 4 hours!!
Hmmm. JetDirects are setup using a TCP/IP port, and you specify the parallel port it connects to - this is translated to a port number (9100 for parallel 1, 9101 for parallel 2...)

You firstly seem to have set it up as though the print server is an addressable device like a PC, with the printer attached and shared (as P1 and so on). Not seen that before. Not sure what you mean by "local printer attached to the port". Any chance of a screen shot - for the curious
