My apologies if I am posting to an inappropriate newsgroup, but this is my
first posting and I'm not sure where to post the following question.
I have installed a 22 node PC-NFS thin ethernet network; it is made up solely
of IBM XTs and uses a SUN 3/50 as a print server. All features of the network
work fine with the exception of printing.
I am trying to print to an HP Laserjet II and haven't been successful in the
least. Ocassionally, I may be able to get a very small ascii file to print
via NET PRINT but there is no consistency. The worst nightmares are in trying
to print from within WordPerfect 4.2 - document formats are a disaster, if they
print at all!
I have looked in every direction (HP, WP, NFS) and tried every PC-NFS
configuration I can think of.
I have spoken to tech. support at SUN but they have been less than helpful.
Has anyone experience with PC-NFS that could possibly shed light on this
mess? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks...Anne
