Hello, all: I am trying to get my NeXT to print to another NeXT and its NeXT Laser without setting us both up as a Netinfo domain. Can one do it? How? Is it similar to setting up lpr to a non-NeXT printer (in other words, should I use nidump, edit the printcap file, and then niload it again)? Can someone send an example of their printcap? I appreciate it. BTW, a second question: can one print a WordPerfect (or any other) binary file to a file, as in WP for DOS or WP for Windows? I think I need to do that to lpr to the LPD server (it uses Ka9q) on a binary file. I cannot seem to find this capability, and I am sure I would need the techniques for non-WordPerfect files also. any help is appreciated. thanks, Joe -- ________ Joe Rosenfeld cowboy@trans.csuohio.edu Automation Librarian joer@inca.law.csuohio.edu Cleveland State University Law Library
