It trurned out this printer is set up to accept direct HTTP connections, so I can print easily via web interface. LPD is disabled on this printer by the printer administrator, but SMB is allowed, so I think printing via apsfilter is also possible. In addition NetWare and AppleTalk can be configured on that printer, but I'm not sure if it helps printing from FreeBSD. -- Anton Shterenlikht Room 2.6, Queen's Building Mech Eng Dept Bristol University University Walk, Bristol BS8 1TR, UK Tel: +44 (0)117 928 8233 Fax: +44 (0)117 929 4423
