- We do it on quite a few machines here and have never had any problems,
- rprinter works at a lower level than capture, and the two don't intefere
- with each other. The machine prints, capture grabs it and sends it to the
- server, rprinter sees it on the server, brings it back and talks to the
- hardware to print it, no problem.

- Do, it works.
