I eventually got the NT system administrator to load up TCP/IP-based remote printing, for UNIX hosts: (i.e. in your Linux printcap file, lp:lp=:rp=NT_host:rm=NT.somewhere.org) They were reluctant because (unlike Linux/UNIX), they have no way of ensuring that only selected hosts &/or users can access the printer. But it works just fine. Dean
