The problem isn't getting the packets between the two machines, but
rather dealing with the packets. XDE had an implementation of TCP/IP,
which though fairly broken, worked just often enought that you could
probably use it to print stuff.  I don't know if it's been folded into
ViewPoint yet. If so, we've got a lpr client in Interlisp which would
provide you with half of the connection, you'd need to write a client
on the ViewPoint machine to do the other half.  Or, you could use XNS,
write a print server in Interlisp, and use the existing client in
ViewPoint.  Looks like either way you've only got half the system. You
just might have to go the server route, which any more can be pretty
cheap, if you buy a used 8000 server (how cheap? Well, shortly after
last year's AAAI some computer broker was trying to sell us a couple
'86s, and he'd throw in the print server free, including the printer.
Used 1108's are probably <$100 by now, too).
