That's what I meant by "printer support".  Sorry if that was not clear.
We do eventually want both client side and server side support for the
Windows printing RPCs, but the client side is far easier because we
don't to use any of the "get driver info" RPCs.  All we need to do is
Create a print job, write data to the job, schedule the job.

Yes.  The client uses RPC to interact with a Windows printer.
