Marc,

  It can be done with TCP/IP and v3r2 or higher using advanced function
printing.  We have done a little research on this one and we think it will
work fine.  Unfortunately, our organization has a little to many fires in
the pan to work on it now.  It can be done, but at the moment we are
actually routing jobs through a workstation using Netsoft, etc.
