We have, in our building, both an ethernet and some Macintoshes. We also have a LaserWriter that everyone would like to use. The LaserWriter is presently connected to a 3B2, and the 3B2 is connected to the ethernet. Is there any software, preferably public domain, which will let us use the LaserWriter transparently from the Macs? We would like to just "point and click" from Word and have our jobs spool to the 3B2 and thence to the LaserWriter. Dan Lamet lamet@sapphire.idbsu.edu

Not exactly public domain though; think it ran +- $500. You might be able to do something with the famous KIP/KAP (CAP?) programs, but I only know that they let you do all sorts of interesting connecting, not what. -stefan -- ---------------------------------------------- MA Bell: (708) 260-5019 --------- Stefan Brandle UUCP: ...!{obdient,uunet!tellab5}!wheaton!stefan Wheaton College or stefan@wheaton.UUCP Wheaton, IL 60187 "But I never claimed to be sane!"
