Hi

Let me know where U connected the peinter now. Is it in parallel port or network port?
If it is connected to network port U can configure as a remote printer. First U will have to assign an IP address to that printer. Add entry in /etc/hosts file.

Go to SAM-printers and plotters-lp spooler-printers and plotters-action-add printer-add remote printer.

Best of luck
