Well. . . don't know if this will help, but we have an HP LaserJet here
at work (I think it's a 4 not a 5) and here are my settings for it (from
the control panel/printer config utility).  It is a remote, not a local
printer.

Names: lp
Spool Directory: /var/spool/lpd/lp
File Limit in Kb: 0
Remote Host: printhere [which is the dns name of our printer]
Remote Queue: [blank]
Input Filter: *auto* - PostScript

The "suppress headers" checkbox is checked.

Maybe try it without the "remote unix" option?
