Hi Nick,

The PC and printer in the remotely located warehouse has a modem and a phone line and has access to the internet via dial-up. Aside from your suggestion and given the above available resources, is there any other way?

For the meantime, I will try your alternative (using a fax driver).

Thanks!
Dennis


>>Hi,

>>A potential client has asked if it's possible to have a report printed to a printer not located within his office's LAN? The report is a pick list generated by their inventory system (installed in the office LAN) and needs to be sent to or printed on a printer located on a remotely located warehouse.
