Hi
I've setup my sun machine to print to my pc. The reason being that the printer does not support postscript.
Anyway, if i boot linux on the pc the printer share works fine.
However when printing via w2k box noting happens.
I have set the printer as shared.
What else do i need to do.
thx
 
You need to install Print Services for Unix. If you open your control panel, and Add/Remove Software, Select Windows components. You'll find it under Other Network File and Print Services.

Once it's installed make sure the "TCP/IP Print Server" service is running. Marc Creviere
