Subject:   accessing a printer with an ethernet card
Message-ID:  <m0sq3dm-000BCpC@sawmill.uucp>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Picture it: an HP LaserJet with an ethernet card on a small DOS/Windows
network.  The company would like to install a FreeBSD box running
2.0.5-RELEASE (to do some other work), and allow it to access the printer.
Is there any software available that can handle this?  If there's a problem
with making sure only one box uses the printer at a time, it's perfectly
acceptable to have the FreeBSD machine be the only system driving the
printer (ie, route the DOS/Windows print jobs through the FreeBSD machine).

Any suggestions/comments would be greatly appreciated.
