My Laserjet 4 Plus was $150, including jetdirect card, from Molten Media on Wordsworth St. You need to fiddle with the buttons on the front to enable it to pick up an IP address from your DHCP server, or you can set an IP manually through the buttons on the printer. You have to step through lots of menus to get there. Once your printer has an IP address, you can tell your printer setup tool on your linux box that there is an lpd server at that address connected to a PCL printer. From then on it just works.
