Hi. After finally converting my wife from the dark side and installing FreeBSD on her laptop I have run into a few problems. Before I ran all print services on one of my free boxes and ran samba so that she could print to it. Which works out quite well because you use the original windows drivers so maintanence/quality are a snap. Now that the box is running free I had to play around with apsfilter to try and achieve the same performance. Apsfilter is a great package but just isnt producing as I had hoped ie. slow, quality isnt 100% etc. So much to my chagrin I installed a win2000 box and hooked the printer up to that. I am just now trying to figure out how to do the reverse of b4, printing from all my nix boxes to this 2000 box using the windows drivers. I still have samba running but I am unsure how to approach this. I would love to hear anyone elses experiences with this sort of situation, even other solutions. Thanks.
