There are other options you can do like flow control etc, but I've found those two lines are all you need. I have 2 or 3 printers right now hooked up to thin client jet direct boxes and they work great. </div> Ronald R.

We want to connect them to thin clients in various classrooms. 1. In the printer setup utility in root what selections do we need to make to cause the printer to work? 2. Do any files other than printcap need to be edited? Which files and what changes need to be made in those files? Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.
