Thanks for all comments. Nice to hear that there is need for a program llike URPO.

(1) Password authentication. I will try some tricks to allow password authentication in next release. It is not the right way, it is unsecure etc.. but can be useful in many situations.

(2) Windows printing. URPO just needs CUPS and Linux (*nix ...) computer!

URPO works in very simple way: first copy file to Linux remote computer, then use CUPS printing command in remote computer to print it (and delete this temporary file). Printing to Windows host needs samba protocol client and driver information...

I guess email printing in some new printers / web-based printing will be a useful solution in some day. CUPS may be a too heavy printing solution to be ported into N900.

[By the way, it is possible to use a printer connected to Windows computer, if you have a Linux computer, too, and set up your CUPS to use Windows printer through SAMBA ]
