printing with ghostscript via cygwin
good day! =)
i was wondering if anyone could help me with this.. i just have a question actually.. you see, i have ghostscript installed in my solaris box.. i have cygwin in my pc which i use to emulate my unix.. my pc already has "Unix Print Services" installed as a system component.. but i still can't print a PS file to a network printer (which does not have a PS personality).. i thought that once i have installed ghostscript i would be able to print in the network printer.. printing ascii files poses no problems at all BTW.. so, do i have to install ghostscript in my pc? or i'm just wrong somewhere in the solaris side?
many thanks! =)
