[Q] printing - how do i set this up? (ie from MS Word)



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

i sent this out last night but i haven't seen it hit the list yet.
sorry if anyone gets it twice...



howdy folks,
i need some printing help.

here's the setup...

linux 1.2.8, fully networked via ethernet
printer is used via the net - not connected directly to my machine.
text and .ps file printing works using lpr (goes to a server in the dept)


i'd like to be able to print from executor apps.  does this work?
when i go to print from MS Word i get this postscript print dialog box
which seems cool and the computer works for a while on it and then
returns to the app like it printed but nothing prints to the printer
or a file as far as i can tell.  however, i could be looking in the
wrong places i suppose.  any ideas about how to do this?
