[Lula] Linux print server in mixed environment

[Steve Glasser]

Hi all,

I have a Linux (debian sarge) box doing the samba for a small network of
Windows XP clients.  I have a raw print queue on the samba box, and
drivers installed on the XP clients.  This was chosen for simplicity and
speed--my users were in a froth about printing.

Now I need to support printing to several OS X v10.2 boxen.  10.2 was
the first version to support cups, but it has very few drivers.  No
driver for our cheese-whiz Minolta color laser.  Upgrading the Macs will
not be done soon; I'm not sure the old iMacs support OS X v10.4 (tiger)
anyway.

Could I create a 2nd print queue with the same printer, and install
drivers on the server?  Would the 2 queues play nice with each other?

Any other ideas?

Thanks, Steve G
