- I have installed pcnfs4.0 on our pc network linked to our SUN IPX.
- Remote printing to the Sparcprinter on the IPX works OK from the pc's,
- even within MS windows applications, such as MSword etc.
- My problem which I just noticed is that I can no longer print to a
- pc's local printer when NFS is installed. Even as the default printer
- though the control panel this doesnt work.
-
- To print to the local printer I have to uninstall PCNFS
- It says in the manual that PCnfs 'doesnt interfere with the operation
- of any printers attached to your PC'. But I cant see anything wrong
- with the way I access the local printer from mswindows.
- Anyone have any pointers??
