Hp Jetdirect 170x Driver For Linux Red Hat 9 - Version 2.4.20-8

i installed the printer server and when i test it gives the error; lp unable to print file: client-error - not found. As I did not install any driver I guess that i need the driver for that installation but I did not found any in the package of the equipment. I have been looking for the driver on the net but can not find any place to download it.
