What does this package provide?

You want to print from your Atari-ST compatible computer on a printer
connected to a remote computer?
The printer connected to your ST shall be usable from a remote machine?

Well, here is the solution provided you have:

-       The remote printer(s) are attached to remote host(s) that are
        reachable via TCP/IP and have a lpd printer spooler daemon running.
        This may also be an Atari-ST compatible machine.

-       The Atari-ST machine(s) run(s) a TOS compatible OS

-       Peter Rottengatters STinG TCP/IP software is up and running on the
        ST(s).
