JDServer makes a printer, connected to a RISC OS computer that is
also on a network, available to client computers also on the
network, via the JetDirect (Raw) protocol.
Note that only the printer is shared out; the printer driver is
not. Each client computer must have its own driver for that model
of printer. JDServer isn't Uniprint.
JDServer is tested on an Iyonix; however, it should run on any
native RISC OS computer with RISC OS version 3.1 upwards that has
an Ethernet interface. My wife and I use it at home to print from
an Eee PC running Xandros Linux, a PC running SuSE Linux, and a PC
running Windows 2000.
JDServer is free and is released under the GPL version 2.
For support, the best place is comp.sys.acorn.apps, or you can
e-mail me.
You can find JDServer on my website: http://www.apts04.dsl.pipex.com
Please let me know how you get on with it!
