[-- Attachment #1 --] I have three PC's at home, two Windoze and one FreeBSD (running NAT). Am thinking of adding a printer. Would like to be able to use it from all three systems, so I figured I'd add it to the FreeBSD system and use Samba to share it. Assuming this is a sain way to go, what is a recommended laserprinter for this ? Say 8+ pages per minute of average complexity images with a cost of < $600. Prefer a HP. Assuming I won't get built in Postscript for this price, so if I want Postscript, I'll have to use Ghostscript (does this work well via Samba ?) Please CC me on any replies/comments. Thanks Tony [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META content=text/html;charset=iso-8859-1 http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content='"MSHTML 4.72.3110.7"' name=GENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I have three PC's at home, two Windoze and one FreeBSD (running NAT).</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT><FONT color=#000000 size=2><BR>Am thinking of adding a printer.
