Re: [PLUG] TCP/IP printing

I'd like to connect my linux box to a TCP/IP printer in my office via a VPN. Given an IP address, how can I connect linux to this printer? In Windows, this is accomplished by configuring the port w.x.y.z as a printer port, and printing to a prinlinux tcp/ip printint device attached to that port. How can I do something comparable using linux?


A nice way is with CUPS. Install it, then use its handy intuitive web interface on localhost:631 to configure the printer.
