Is it possible to print on a networked Windows Print server from an AIX server, without using remote printer queues?
- by Stringent Software
I have an application on an AIX server (v5.3) that needs to print via a Windows Print Server over the LAN.
The simplest way to do this is to use SMIT to setup a remote print queue - which I've done on the test environment - but the IT department have refused to set up a remote print queue on the Production server. I don't have root access to the Production server.
Is there any other method for connecting the app to the print server that doesn't involve print queues on the AIX box?
