I thought that Uniprint works via the printer driver in a PC. On the
RISCOS machine !Uniprint creates a bit map of the file, sends it via the
network to the PC which then prints on its attached (by USB, network,
centronics port etc) printer. So directly connecting the RISCOS machine to
the printer via the network will not work. Of course I could be wrong.
