Is it at all possible to send a remote print request from a Unix
system to a VMS system?  We have 6 laser printers on our network.
They are set up via Pathworks.  Three of them are connected to Pathworks
and a serial line from a Unix system.  We want to phase out the Buffalo
boxes we use to connect both.  We could do this by sending a remote
print request from the Wyse UNIX system, to our VAX or Alpha system.
Please e-mail me if possible.
