10.4: Remote printing via SSH using PDF Services
Authored by: ars on Dec 07, '06 01:11:26PM
There was a previous hint about remote printing to Unix printers via ssh:

That hint should also work for remotely printing to a Mac, running OS X.
I use it from time to time to print something on my work computers from home, so that it is ready when I walk into the office. I had to modify that old hint in order to print to my work printers, as they were expecting postscript files. I used for a while pdf2ps on the remote site, but that often failed for printing pdf files. Now I modified my script to use convert on my Mac to do the conversion.
