Hello!
I have a need to print from a 4.3BSD machine (a NeXT) to an IBM PC
running System V. The reason is that the IBM PC is the only machine
which interfaces to a Xerox 4050 laser typesetter, a
50-imprint-per-minute beast.
System V does not seem to support BSD-style network printing, which
involves a daemon listening at Internet Domain Socket 515 for print
requests from remote machines. What I would like is a daemon written
for System V that listens at that socket and services print requests. I only
need requests to be serviced one way only, NeXT to PC.
Rather than write this from scratch myself, I was wondering if anyone
out there has such a beast already written and can send me source.
Please send replies to
