I'm sure someone has asked this before, but I can't seem to find any
replies:
How can I print from a symbolics to a unix box (e.g. sun)? I assume
that I need some sort of service on the symbolics to talk to the lpd
server on the unix box.
You don't need a service on the Symbolics, you need a protocol. In
Genera 8.0, load the "RPC", "Embedding-Support", and "UX-Support"
systems and you'll get the UNIX-LPD protocol defined.

You will also nee the Symbolics LGP software (the font metrics).
