Yes, Samba (specifically smbclient) can shuttle jobs to CIFS printer queues, doesn't matter if they are on a workstation, server, etc... The "hard part" is hooking that into the local print system, either by filters if you are using some LPD/LPRng derivative or "backends" if using CUPS. That is a platform specific issue (and I don't know anything about SCO's printing subsystem). -- Adam Tauno Williams, Network & Systems Administrator Consultant - http://www.whitemiceconsulting.com Developer - http://www.opengroupware.org -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
