We have numerous networks, Sun, Netware, and Mac printing to some HP laser printers. I asked my sys admin how to print to any of them from my PC, I have both DOS and BSD on it. He told me to erase BSD and install Linux and he'd think about helping me. I can ping the printer and I know there must be a way to print to it, but will I be able to do it without my sys admin's help? I have limited permissions in netware, but I might have enough on the Sun box. If anyone has any suggestions, please also e-mail my address, mjanosi@numacorp.com, because I have only e-mail access to the internet and I had to quit the mailing list because of the volume of e-mail. TIA! --------------------------------------------------------- Miki Janosi NUMA Corporation, Akron, OH Tel: (330) 925-5000 x.455 email: mjanosi@numacorp.com
