Print from server Linux/Unix to any Windows client printer
In this video, we see how to print from a Linux/Unix server program to any Windows Client printer.
In this sample we shared a directory on the Linux server with the Windows clients via Samba (you may even use NFS, SCO-VisionFS or any other SMB software on your host machine), but you may also choose to transfer the print jobs via ftp or by using the terminal emulator software if it routes the print jobs to the client printer via the "Transparent Printing" technique (in such case you may probably have to configure Printfil to capture the client LPT1: port).
Ok, let's go:
Open a Linux terminal session
Run a printer configuration program
/usr/share/printfil is shared as \\VRH9\printfil with the Windows clients
So, let's make Printfil capturing the Linux file of that user
That's all. Now:
Run the Test Printer function
Printfil captures the Linux print job and you can print it to any Windows printer
