I followed the directions, shared my printer, and it still didn't print. I guess I'll try this later.I was wondering though, when I share my printer, it's available for anyone who has this program to print on? Because when I search for printers I see lots of people in Russia and around the USA have this. So would they be able to just print something on my printer? Or do I have to agree to them printing it first? And lastly, is this program safe since anybody can just see my printer on their computer?

Salesmen currently have to send the order in and then the warehouse prints it but if they could skip a step then maybe it would save some time!

E-mail would be a better suited fax replacement. Just send the documents as an attached PDF. Why waste the ink and paper on something you don't want. My company is all ready set up this way with anything sent to our fax number being received as an electronic file and forwarded as a pdf to an e-mail box. Employees can read faxes any where and they are easy to send between other employees.I agree that faxing should go but the biggest reason I think it should go is to save paper and cut waste.Remote printing does have a place that I can think of. Say I have 4 salesmen out working the streets they could use there laptops or pda's to take an order and then without using any other software print the order in the warehouse. The limit to this is of course that everyone wants to track inventory and things like that but it could work on a small scale. How is this a replacment for fax?
