Re: Print device to Windows shared printer

[John McKee <jmmckee3@xxxxxxxxx>]

I did have one computer that had a USB attached printer.  When I installed
the LPR tool from icrosoft on to the Windows computer, the printer became a
network attached printer.  On the i, all I needed was the IP address and
proper manufacturer type and model.  Worked great.  But, I got static from
the pc people.  They wanted to tell the user that a seprate network drop
was needed and that the printer needed to be directly attached to the
network.  Not sure if they just wanted the user to spend money they didn't
have.
