HP OfficeJet 4x via AppleTalk?

I advise a student radio station that received five iMacs (early models
-- they only run OS 9) and an HP OfficeJet 4 as donations. We updated
the printer with the Postscript module and extra memory it needs to
handle Postscript. (I think this upgrade made it a 4M.)

The printer is connected to the office network with an Intel Netport
Express 10/100 print server, which DOES support AppleTalk.

The problem is that I can only use a few built-in fonts -- everything
else switches to the default font (Courier).

Is there a way to get the OfficeJet to use the TTF and Postscript fonts
installed on the Macs?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Oops! I the printer is a LaserJet 4, not an OfficeJet.

It may lack the RAM to downlaod extra fonts; or you may
not be sending them when needed...
