RE: Printer on the net

["Stone, Brad V (TC)" <bvstone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ping and get a reply, you meant to say, right?

Example, on my AS/400, I can ping and resolve Yahoo.com.  But, I don't get a
reply because of the proxy used.  So, that means I couldn't print to a
printer on the internet.

Or could I?  I've never tried, I'm just assuming.
