Hello Everyone,

     I have a small LAN network with several laptops and a desktop which
also doubles as a print server. I have Fedora Core 2 running on the
desktop and it serves as my remote print server. The two laptops are a
Dell Inspiron 4000 and an IBM ThinkPad T-30, the Dell having Fedora Core 3
rc3 and the ThinkPad having Fedora Core 2. Both of the laptops can "see"
the remote printer on the LAN but when I print from them, the print output
is all garbled. I have an Epson Stylus C80 Printer and I know that I
installed the correct print driver. Has anyone else had a problem with
garbled output with remote printer? Please help.

    ... On site we use our SBS as our print server to make configuration easy, is there any way of rolling out the printer config to the workstations but not using the SBS as a print server (as it appears a waste of bandwidth to send the print job from the remote site to the server then back to the printer on the remote site). ...
