We have a Mac II (which is in fact a TI micro-explorer) linked to a network of Suns via an ethernet card. Research to date suggests that if we run uab as the bridge, we can then run cap on one of the Suns to allow us transparent access to its laser printer from Mac applications _without_ a Kinetics or other box. I've got the software - before I get neck-deep in it, has anyone already done this? Any pointers/known pitfalls/hard-won experience gratefully received! (especially since I'm no comms expert and so far have a very hazy idea of what uab and cap do and in particular how they fit together). Ruth Aylett AIAI
