My 'orphan' Canon multipass F80 is a fine piece of machinery but it has always
been a paperweight in Linux & will be for MS Vista. So once I replace my 2003
dual-boot Mandriva / XP PC, is there a way to use this old PC to run the F80
using the XP drivers? I've now got Verizon FIOS & would like to have new & old
PC's networked thru the verizon router. I've been googling network printing
with Linux & XP but all the info I've found seems to want to use Linux print
drivers & Samba to handle the XP printing. I haven't found anything about using
XP drivers on the printer PC from a networked Linux machine.
