Friends,

I have installed Putty in my windows xp pc. I am connecting the RHEL
AS 3 server using putty from my windows xp. My printer is connected to
my windows xp.
Now, i want to print text.txt of RHEL AS 3.0 in my windows xp printer
through putty.

For Example:
my pc ip is 117.23.2.55
our RHEL AS 3 is 117.23.2.1
my printer is SAMSUNG - ML-1520

what i have to configure and how can i take a printout of the files
from linux?



Thanks
Sathyguy

You have to install your printer also on your LINUX.
see the manual.
or you can try to install the printer from the setup prigrm ( as
root )

why dont you just copy the file text.txt from the RHEL server using
ftp ??
and simply print it on the winxp machine ?

This sort of thing dates back to olden days when the printer was
tied to the ascii terminal. In PuTTY you can configure a print device.
Then you use a shift-in/shift-out sequence to take the data
coming to your TTY (e.g. the PuTTY window) and have it redirected
to the print device. Obviously, while this is happening, you
won't have anything happening screen-wise on your PuTTY session.

Is that enough to go on? Do a man on terminfo and find
the key sequence for mc4 and mc5, those are the printer
on/off sequences... you'll need a terminal definition with
those entries in it.

You can use infocmp to see your current terminal capabilities.

You can then define a script to do the:
tput mc5
cat filename
tput mc4


To send the filename to your printer.

If it is just text you want to print, use the possibilities of putty.
Otherwise:
- on your xp-box: share your printer. As I am not a Windows-man, you need to
figure out how to do that yourself.
