[comp.protocols.appletalk] Appletalk/Imagewriter question

wrb@milton.acs.washington.edu (William Barker) (03/21/90)

A very naive question:

My wife's firm uses Macs and Imagewriters, all linked via Appletalk.  Quite
often she is denied access to the printer, usually after many of the other
users have used the printer at least once.  My question:  is there some
mechanism either on the Appletalk side, or the Imagewriter side, that limits
the number of connections to the Imagewriter to some finite number?  In
general what I'm after is a little background on how the printer connection
works.  The situation is frustrating to her, and therefore frustrating to
me.  I'd like to offer some advice.
