[comp.protocols.appletalk] Farallon's PhoneNetTalk and HP LaserJet III

capuano@GW.VGCSOFT.IT (03/22/91)

In a recent message I read that Farallon is selling a product that
allows MSDOS PCs to use the EtherTalk protocol. HP is selling a LocalTalk
interface for its LaserJet and also an Ethernet interface for Novell lans.

Is it possible to use HP's Ethernet card using EtherTalk, avoiding in this
way the need of a mac as a bridge between EtherTalk and LocalTalk to 
allow PCs and Ethernet Macs to print directly to the LaserJet ?

Thanks,
Vincenzo.
