I believe it is possible. We are using Xerox printers, but are talking through a PC equipped with software and I/O cards provided by Barr Systems. It is my understanding that the Xerox printers equipped with the Sun workstations have similar capabilities. The Barr system also uses LPR, which we provide via a third-party spooling program (we have Spoolmate from Tivoli. NBSPOOL can also do it, and I'm sure others can as well). MPE does not have LPR, AFAIK. >>> Edison Burnengo <[log in to unmask]> 07/28/98 09:09am >>> We need information about the conection between an Hp3000 and a Xerox Printer 4050 using TCP/IP. This printer uses a SUN as a controller device. Questions: a - Is the above possible? b - Xerox suggest the installation of Native LPR on the HP3000? Thanks in advance Edison S. Burnengo
