Re: Need Help with PuTTY - Printing to Local Printers

Jessi <jessiright77@xxxxxxxxx> writes:
We have a Unix-based database that uses AIX. Workstations in other
facilities that are *not* on our internal network run Windows and need
access to our database. We have installed the PuTTY client on the
workstations in the external facilities, and they now have no problem
accessing our database using the SSH connection. HOWEVER, they
cannot print reports from our database to the local printers in their
facilities.

The PuTTY terminal emulator supports passthrough printing.

If your database supports that as a printing method, you may be able to
use it. Note that this is a raw facility; your database will need to
know in detail how to drive the printer attached to the PC.
