So you were able to configure remote printing to a printer attached to an NT
machine on your network? You used the Red Hat print configuration tool to
do this? What does your printcap look like? Can you post a copy to the list?
I have a printer which prints directly to an HP Laserjet 5si which has a
Jet Direct card, but it acts just like a BSD LPR deamon. I think Beth's
printer is connected directly to her windows machine through a paralell
cable. I would be curious to see your setup especially if it is using
samba as a client.
And of course I might have to take a look at Red Hat again.
