[Mono-list] Printing from a service/non GDI app

Hi there

I need to print from a remoting service (assume for the discussion I need to 
print pdf/ps). Using C++/Unix, I would normally call out to a cups server, 
and get it printed. No problem. .NET however?

I am quite confused about the right approach in Mono/.NET?

System.Drawing.Printing does not work in services.

Could I somehow get a cups server to support an SMB printer attached to e.g. a 
Windows workstation, and print using that?

Should I look for third party solutions?

I am quite at loss here, please advise.

Regards,

Mads
