Having to perform Herculean tasks, load extra software; i.e. cups for instance, etc is not productive. 3) Personally, I have found it easier to print from the FBSD box to the Win box. As a bonus, the print quality is usually of a higher quality that I can get using a driver built for my FBSD box using the same printer attached directly to the FBSD box. Amazingly, Windows has no trouble recognizing a printer attached to the FBSD PC, installing a driver and then using it with virtually with no user intervention. 4) My time is valuable. I don't feel like wasting it trying to get a printer to work correctly when it is easier to do on a Win32 box. It is not time well spent. --=20 Jerry gesbbb@yahoo.com There is no cure for birth and death other than to enjoy the interval.
