Printing... how?

How can I print from my PPC to a printer? I had one that was "shared" on a windows network, but (1) I could never find a program to let me add the 'print' option to my PPC and (2) the printer could never be found by even my WinXP laptop...

BTW: has anyone had good results (PPC and PC alike) from Bluetooth or WiFi print servers

This should do on wifi, ir, serial and bluetooth - but I haven't any of them yet..

Probably easiest to get working on wlan if you have a direct ip-printer(unix-type printqueue) in your network, or a printer shared on a server supporting direct ip printjobs.. (eg. NT/W2k server with the tcp printing services installed..., or a directly network connected printer)

Will try this in a while, and also see if it works with my pdf-server.

Good luck
