Printing from Windows

Thanks to samba, I can access the directory /p on my Linux box as s:\p, having mapped ``Drive S:'' in Windows to \\<hostname>\p\. I have a shortcut to this directory in the upper righthand corner of my desktop so that I can simply drag text or postscript files into the spool directory.

From inside programs, it is necessary to ``print to file'' using a postscript printer driver. I always specify the file s:/p/p to minimize typing. The next section describes how to set up printing-to-postscript-file under Windows.
