Subject: ? printing problem

Hello altogether, sorry a somewhat rather particular question.
Accessing 
Linux-based Pine from a
nt40sp5 workstation via 
nt's telnet by 
vt-100 or ANSI,
everything works perfectly well but 
	printing from Pine 
	seems impossible.

On the other hand,
+ printers on NT-workstation do work well with any other software 
+ print-out from Pine works well with other telnet, 
  eg on old PCs with Win3.11 based Attachmate telnet

Any similar experience among us ?
Any hints for trouble-shooting ?
Alternative nt-based telnet or ssh 
to be recommended ?

TIA, kind regards, hal ;-)

Might as well stop right there. Microsoft's included telnet does NOT have
passthrough print capabilities. You'll need a "functional" telnet
package. Please consider ours.

We use Tera Term as our telnet client on all Windows variants, and have
had no problems with printing or anything else.  It's free and
open-source, and there is an SSH plugin for it as well.

Do a search at www.google.com for tera term ssh and it'll be the first
result.
