My home network is entirely Unix and OSX. I provide access to
the various printers via the LPD protocol on my LAN. This all
Just Works for any Unix or OSX hosts that I connect.
I have a house guest for the next 10 days who has a Windows
laptop and I'd like him to be able to use my printers without me
having to jump through too many hoops.
If there is a way for me to do this, I'd be grateful to be
pointed in the direction of suitable clues. If the answer
involves setting up grotesque pieces of infrastructure like CUPS
(which doesn't work with my printers anyway) or Samba (for which
I would have no other use), then that counts as "Sorry, you
can't do that."
Cheers, Greg
