- I've just installed my new NeXT and I'm delighted. But am I
- satisfied? No, of course not!
-
- I have no printer.
-
- What I do have is a perfectly decent, AppleTalk-connected
- PostScript printer in the next office. On the AppleTalk network,
- there's a GatorBox connecting the LAN to the university's ethernet
- and, in a few days, the NeXT will be connected to ethernet.
-
- 1. Is there a practical (no $$$) way of instructing the NeXT to
- print to the PostScript printer on the AppleTalk network?
-
- 2. I'm unclear about what "native" AppleTalk support in NeXTstep
- 3.0 means. How would one connect a NeXT to an AppleTalk LAN?
-
- Thanks.
-
- Michael.
