You can configure the unix clients to print remotely to the shared printer on the windows box. What printer formats you want are determined by the printers and software installed on the windows box.

I have to fool with a windows pro 2000 box at work.
I note that there is an option to configure it as a print server for
unix clients. Does that mean that there is a way to get windows to filter
the print job for the printer attached to the windows box with 2000? It
would be nice if windows 2000 would take a postscript file and convert
it into a printer specific format.

Thanks,

Joel
