I discovered an absolutely fabulous feature of Navigator.  We have two
400's on our corporate intranet and we've defined remote writers
pointing
to another printer on each system.  It works, but we have to define a
writer for each printer we want to use.

I decided to try something else the other day, so I fired up Navigator,
found the 1200 spool files I wanted to print on the other system, hilit
them, right-clicked, explored the other system down to the printer I
wanted, right-clicked and pasted.
