Hello Ho, If you are using a printer that is postscript enabled (like HP LaserJet's) it is easy. Simply convert whatever you want to print to a postscript file (there are several utilities on freshmeat.net they do this) and then using PHP open a socket to the JetDirect card and send the data. HP's JetDirect port is 9100. You could possibly install LPR or CUPS on your PHP server and use the printer that way as well.
