Here I run into the same problem that I have with Warren Block's lpr suggestion. Following the instructions at:http://iharder.sourceforge.net/macosx/winmacprinter/ I have everything working fine at the XP server side. But when I try to add the networked printer from my FreeBSD box, starting at KMenu->Print System->Print Manager I enter administrator mode and select 'Add printer/class' from the Add menu. This starts the Add Printer Wizard. I select remote LPD Queue add the host and queue info. At the Printer Model Selection page I check the box for Postscript Printer and get a warning dialog: "Unable to find the Postscript driver." I have Ghostscript installed and it has served me well in the recent past, so I know it's there. Why can't KDE find it? Where is it looking for the postscript driver?
