[comp.sys.apple] GS Printing on AppleTalk

ranger@ecsvax.UUCP (Rick Fincher) (12/12/87)

Anyone out there had any luck printing to a LaserWriter with a GS on an 
AppleTalk network with zones?  I can print fine with the new system on a net
consisting of 1 gs and 1 Mac, also on a net running 10 Mac and 1 gs running
AppleShare, but not on the zoned network.  Any hints?

Thanks,

The IIGS print drivers don't support AppleTalk zones yet.  Apple has
said that they will try to put zone support in for the next system
disk release early in '88 (February?).
