We have a couple of Macs and two uVaxs in a computer room. The Macs produce postscript code and print it over Appletalk to a Laserwriter. The uVax also prints postscript to a Laserwriter. However, this is quite a wastes to have a two several thousand dollar printers in the same room doing the same thing, processing postscript. Is one of the following possble? - Put the uVax on AppleTalk for printing - Have the uVax receive the ps from the macs and act as a server. - Run a Laserwriter off of the Mac's serial line. to send it's ps to the uVax making it a spooler. Does anyone have any knowlege, suggestions, comments, or experience with some of the above methods or any otehr methods I may have overlooked? Philip Dye pd1h+@andrew.cmu.edu
