Steve,

It might help to know what you have tried, so that those who respond = will have
an idea of what is not working for you.  I am not sure= what you found on the
Internet or why you were even looking there be= cause all the information that I
needed to get printing working from = windows was in the Emacs info nodes.

I have the following in my .emacs.  I have no trouble printing f= rom Emacs
v.21.3 to a networked HP printer (I have printed to other b= rands of printers as
well) from Windows 2000 PRO (XP should not be an= y different, I did not need to
change any settings when I upgraded to= Win2K from WinNT):
;; set the printer command to null
(setq = lpr-command "")
;; set the default printer name
(setq printer-nam= e "//txnprt01/ps8")
;; set the Postscript printer command to null
= (setq  ps-lpr-command "")
;; set the default Postscript printer = name
(setq ps-printer-name "//txnprt01/ps8")
;; Turn on duplex pri= nting
(setq ps-spool-duplex t)
