I have several Unix clients, and I need to have them access printers on the NT LAN. We are using TCP/IP as the protocol, and the printers are on jetdirect. Any advice on what i need to do on both the unix and NT end

Load LPD on the NT server, share the printer on NT. Point Unix to the printer. Done.

Hello.
I have the same problem, but my printer isn't a TCP-IP printer. Printer is locally configured in LPT1.
What I have to do?
Thanks
