when i use nprint from the ncpfs package to print over my novell ipx network, html pages come out as 1 line of html /code/ and then a bunch of blank pages.
Anyone know how to print the "brower interpretation" of the html pages?
Thanks.

I also have problems printing to a Netware PQ. Printing from the commandline works fine, but I haven't figured out how to print from gui apps.
Since I'm on holiday this week and the pc I have setup for Netware printing is at the office, all I can suggest for now is you check out the Netware printing section of www.linuxprinting.org. (http://www.linuxprinting.org.)
Caldera also has quite a bit of Netware documentation on their site. Sorry I can't give you the url as I'm using my newly built pc this morning and I haven't copied over my bookmarks from my laptop yet. Just installed ME and W2K yesterday. Next Linux.

I'm sorry to hear that you were going to install ME. I got it in my can when I bought it and it just keeps crashing and reboots on checking e-mails and stuff - absoultely crappy version if you ask me. (Besides MS has now stopped supporting the concept...). The only way I now how to get it working somewhat stable is to start it with only system.ini (and static.vxd to get the network working).
Anyway, about the nprint: I have the same problem. I can't print from like OpenOffice. I even tried to print the document to a PostScript file and then use the nprint but then the printer prints the postscript file as a text file heavily indented so only the first 4 lines are visible and the rest of the printout results in blank, slighly bent and warm papers.
If someone has solved this problem by now I would be really interested in how your solution.
I haven't got the exact driver need HP LaserJet 2100 but have HP LaserJet 2100M. Dunno if that is a problem.
