Gentlemen; Scenario: Web server (Apache2/PHP) runs app that wishes to print to a printer physically attached to a different desktop on the same network. Q1) What needs to be installed on the web server to allow this to happen (I'm assuming its cups itself as it contains both "lp" and "lpr")? Q2) Must the remote printer be defined as a queue on the web server that wishes to send output to it (i.e.: if web server is "WS" and remote desktop is "WS1" with a printer "P1" connected to it, must printer "P1" be "defined" with a queue on "WS")? While I use cups for all my Linux printing needs, I am having difficulty making this somewhat simple application work. And YES, I have perused the cups docs and faqs and what little forums there are as well as linuxprinting.org. Thanks for any answers/suggestions. Bob
