I have this Dell laser on a network with the server and I can't get it
to pass the "network printer operation" test in the HP Network Printer
Manager. I have beed able to print to it via Samba thru a Windows XP
WS, but I was wondering if I can print to it directly from SCO, since
sometimes the XP station is not powered on. Thanks for any insite.

Hi Gary,
Google this group at
[url]http://groups.google.com/group/comp.unix.sco.misc[/url]
for netcat, and read up on, and download, netcat at [url]www.aplawrence.com[/url]
You'll probably find it straightforward, but come back
with questions if you have any problem.
Good luck,
Dan Martin

I don't know what an "insite is", but I might have some insight.
Have you considered using netcat instead of the HP stuff?
