Hi,<br />
<br />
I have a HP Laser printer connected to a Print Server on a Cat5 network.<br />
The Print Server has an IP address assigned to it.<br />
<br />
From any of the PCs on the network I want to be able to print<br />
to the printer on the Print Server, using a Delphi app that I have written.<br />
<br />
How can I locate the Printer and send a print job to it?<br />
Do I send a print job to the print queue of the printer and if so<br />
how can I find the printer on the network to do this?<br />
Do I need to install the printer on each of the PCs to be able<br />
to see it or do I find the IP address and how do I go about this?<br />
<br />
Any help would be greatly appreciated<br />
Many Thanks
