We have several PCs emulating terminals that are connected via ethernet 
(using FTP's  DOS based software)
to our Xenix machine running tcp/ip. These terminal are remote from the Xenix
CPU and we cannot run a serial line to it.  

My question:
How do we print to a Laserjet at that remote site? I would consider slaving
the printer to a PC on the net but would not like to have to be logged in on
that terminal to print (ie not use lprint). Is there a better way? Does
Xenix tcp/ip support remote printing, even via another system that can get 
a serial line to the site?

Thanks for any help
