A HP JetDirect or something like that in other words?

Silly programmers in the Windows-world...Windows NT has a lpd-server
shipped as standard. Why should I pay for another one??

That would also be an idea. The NT-machine is working 24h a day

work as the print-server too.

Ah well, I figure out why it's not working one day.
