- Howdy!
-
- My room-mate has just purchased a new Apple Personal LaserWriter NTR for
- his Mac IIci, and so I was wondering if there is some way we can
- simultaneously connect both my NeXTstation and his Mac to the printer. In
- other words, does the NTR have an "all ports active" feature that will
- allow me to connect to it via a serial line while my roommate connects
- with an AppleTalk cable? Will we both be able to give the printer
- different names? Finally, does anyone know where I can get a NeXT
- Null-Modem Cable (MiniDIN-8 to DB-25)? NeXTConnection? How much?

- Thanks Much,
