You can solve this using one of the following techniques: 1) Easiest method (but not free) - purchase the Screwdrivers printer drivers from www.tricerat.com or the ePrintAnywhere printer drivers from www.blackice.com. These install on the server and client and run over RDP protocol to handle seamless printing that is very flexible. 2) Make the remote printer a shared printer and connect to your server via a VPN connection that puts your remote station on the same subnet as the the server. Then just add that "network" printer to your server. Jerry
