First, you have looked at the sections about setting up printers in the Handbook, right? Second, by 'network printer' do you mean a printer with its own network card or a printer running off of a machine that takes print requests for it? Third, when you say you want to be able to print more than just text, does that mean you have gotten text to the printer? If you have, the first battle is won. If the printer is Postscript ready, you can print 'more than just text' by sending it Postscript. If not... well then things get hairier. Some more details about your setup, how far you have gotten, what you have tried, and specific problems can help us help you. If it is a specific, detailed problems, freebsd-questions may be a better venue. HTH. -- Crist J.
