The program is a driver for a Printronix 6000 series printer so that it can run on an AppleTalk network.

Pico Blvd. > L.A., CA. 90064 > 213-277-4700 We have been able to print to sever Printronix 6000 series printers, in a fashion. What we have are NetSerial boxes from Shiva. These boxes let you plug any serial device into the NetSerial, and the NetSerial will handle the AppleTalk part of the job. This works, well enough. But we have to talk to the Printronix just like any other serial printer. We have some programs that output to the Printronix in this fashion, but it is NOT like using the File... Print... menu. :-( What we need is a driver, similar to AppleTalk ImageWriter, that would let the mac print from any application to the Printronix. We would even settle for a driver that must have the Printronix directly connected to the mac. Please include me on any distributions to Ms. Olson, I will repost to the net. Thanks.
