I've 5 Unix printers attached to 5 *separate* Suns (over the Suns' serial ports). The Unix printers are just plain laserwriters but all Sun users use the Transcript package on these printers (e.g. print troff/ditroff, latex, text, & pic files). I also have a Fastpath. There're a couple of Macs but *no* laserwriter on the Appletalk net. Now, is it true that in order for my Macs to access ALL the Unix printers, I need to fireup 5 instances of lwsrv -- each lwsrv for each Unix printer ? I'll nice though if lwsrv can act as a clearinghouse of some sort -- i.e. smart enough to route print jobs to the right Unix printer. any pointers appreciated. -- Eric Ho Princeton University eho@clarity.princeton.edu
