[comp.sys.sun] Printing from PC/NFS PC to Laserwriter II

heiser@tdw201.ed.ray.com (02/01/90)

We would like to be able to print spreadsheets/graphs, etc from Microsoft
Excel to a Laserwriter II.  The PC running Excel is connected to a network
of Suns (3/280's, 386i's, etc) via PC/NFS.  Excel has a printer
setup-option for the Laserwriter.

When we try to print in this way, we just get the header page and a blank
page.  When we print regular ascii files using "net print filename lpt3:",
they print fine.

Has anyone out there on this list done anything like this?
Thanks in advance!
