For the later, I'll use Samba to actually share the printer. As far as the spooler on the FreeBSD host machine, what's the general consensus: lpd or CUPS? -My clients are computer illiterate (they're incapable of specifying filter options). -I have to be able to strictly control access to the printer. -Accounting of the number of pages printed by each user would be helpful. -Print quotas would be nice, but not entirely required. -Must be robust enough that I can leave for six months and when I come back it still works. -The printer is an HP Laserjet 1020 Pros, cons? -Modulok-
