Once again I approach the altar of pooled knowledge so that I 
might accomplish mighty tasks and attain lofty goals (not to 
mention impress the boss!).  Here goes:

We have three file servers so far in the Veterinary Hospital.  
Probably at least two more will be added in the next year or
two.  How can I set up each file server to have access to the
same printer?  Said printers are connected to ISA-Compatible 
workstations (with one MCA that we don't like to talk about) and
are generally used by users on a single file server.  However,
occasionally it would be helpful for people on other file servers
to print on those other printers.  

Example:

User-A in Goss Lab is on File Server 1.  User-B in the Hospital is
on File Server 2.  Normally they mind their own business, but today
User-A has a report to send to User-B.  Since it's raining outside
and she doesn't want to walk, User-A would like to print on User-B's
network printer.  User-A is an authorized user on File Server 1 only.
User-B is an authorized user on File Server 2 only.  We use Lanspool
to do printer routing.  Buying more printers is out.  Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
