- I recently got an Indigo to go with my ESV-20 (another mips type
- graphics box) and my vms MV3100. I manage all the printers I have from the
- microvax and use CMU-TEK as the tcp/ip transport for it. Now this uses
- lpr/lpd to allow printing. Is it possible to get showcase + other things
- that use the IRIX print manager to use lpr rather than lp ? or at the
- very least have the print manager direct stuff to files rather than
- devices ?
