>From the new VOICE issue
(http://www.os2voice.org/VNL/past_issues/VNL1001H/vnewsft.htm):
_____

Oleg V.Cat suggested the following when someone asked on
the eComStation mail list how to print to a TCP/IP printer:

Try the following:

SET LPR_SERVER=nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
SET LPR_PRINTER=lp
SET USER=userid
start lprmon -b LPT1

This transfers all output from port LPT1 to printer
with name "lp" on server with tcp/ip nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
_____

I have an SMC firewall box with a printer port. I haven't used the
printer port yet -- is the above info something I need to use with it?
