[comp.sys.next] NeXT Printer Exporting

mikec@wam.umd.edu (Michael D. Callaghan) (02/26/91)

I am wanting to export my NeXT Laser Printer to my non-netinfo network.
Here at the UofMd, we have a Laserwriter Plus attached to a Vax at one
of our workstation centers. It can be accessed by any of the Vaxstations
on the LAN or WAN in one of two ways. If you send your output to wor-ps,
your file is assumed to be a PostScript file. If you send it to wor-lp
(I may have the suffix wrong), your file goes to the same printer, but
it is interpreted as plain Ascii text. I would like to do the same from
my IBM AT-compatible that is networked with my Cube. 

The NeXT manuals explain how to export a NeXT printer to a Net-info
network, but nothing else. Has anyone done this?
