You can select 'Generic' 'Raw print queue' as the printer type which will then send whatever you generate to the printer without messing with it. This does then mean that you need to generate the correct code within the app, and therefore can't use it with a normal app, such as OOo. Have you looked at the notes for the 'Generic' 'GDI Printer'? I don't think Joel's suggestion will work because as far as I'm aware, the host Windows PC doesn't do anything with an incoming request except SPOOL it. Therefore sending a postscript doc would only work if the printer supported postscript - at which point we wouldn't be having this thread. > so the only hope is using xp only as print server > > any idea, suggestions please? > > > Lewi > > > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
