Network Printing - CAT5 / Token Ri

Comment:
I am looking to print to several HP printers at different locations over a WAN from an NT print server based at head office.
This is a required set up, as we are currently using the NT server to bridge 2 domains (2 different companies), and I need to print from an application running on my network.
The problem is that two of the warehouses have token ring networks.
Is it possible to connect the print server to these remote machines that are sitting on the token ring network?

Can you ping those pinters over the WAN from your location? if you can, you can print to it. I would use LPR/LPD printing function in windows 2000 pro/XP to do the job (TCP/IP) printing.
