I don't have the Netgear (nor, for that matter, RH -- I'm Debian), but
the bottom line is that you probably want to use "direct printing" (or
something close to that), to port 9100 on 10.0.1.100.  If that doesn't
work, then try LPR.  I'm sorry I can't give you more directions, but w/o
Red Hat, I can't figure out exactly what step-by-step stuff to tell you.
 Feel free to either reply directly to me, or e-mail the list, if you
can give add'l particulars.
