Re: TCP/IP Printing

["Michael Kenney" <kenney@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't know of an elegant solution, but one you may consider is to create

queue for the forms and write a CL program to start the remoter queue.
When starting the remote queue
 send a message to the user prompting them to load the  proper forms.
