Printing using local TCP/IP port

[Dag N]

Hi.
I have now a user that would like to use our printers.
The only way to print out is to configure a Standard TCP/IP Port, but I can
not figure out how to do this in WindowsME. Everyone else are using WindowXP
and there are no problem with those users.

Dag,

Regrettably Win Me contains no built-in networking printing client. If
the printer is an HP printer then look on the HP site where you may find
the necessary client (I run an HP4550 colour LaserJet off a JetDirect box
on my LAN). Otherwise you will need to look on www.download.com or Google
for a suitable client such as perhaps the Intelliscribe LPR Print Client
(http://download.com.com/3000-2088-10206823.html?tag=lst-0-1).

Thank you for your quick response. I will inform the user.
