macbook:~ rsinclair$ telnet 192.168.1.109 631I also found that I can print docs that are local to me at a remote computer by using the following command:
Trying 192.168.1.109...
Connected to imac.home.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
cat filename.pdf | ssh unixfool@192.168.1.109 lpr *
It asks for a password (for logging into the remote machine so that it can execute the 'lpr' command against the file output. The resulting printout gets the job done but its not particularly pretty.
