Subject: tcp/ip networking

Hello,

I'm using OpenDOS 7.01 on my 486 (8Meg RAM) and have a
3Com ethernet card installed. I'm connected to the Internet
via a T1 connection via the ethernet card. I can use MSKERMIT,
Arachne, Minuet and Telnet to connect to systems on the 
Internet. My school department also has a tcp/ip network
set up for printing, file sharing, etc. I was unsuccessful
using NETWARE to do things like printing to other printers in
the department, etc. but since I can access the Internet, 
it would seem I would be able to contact other printers, 
all on the same network connected to the same T1 line.

Does OpenDOS have the capability to do network printing
over a tcp/ip network like this? Sorry if I am getting 
terminology wrong - I'm not a network expert. Thanks for 
any help or pointers to information that any one can provide!
