Levi, first things first: does "telnet 192.168.0.251 9100" get you into
your jetdirect?
Maybe you have another device with this address on the network? Mabe the
jetdirect has hp protocol disabled?

I have over a hundred of embedded and external jetdirects, all on the
internal networks, with no problems.
