Thanks for the quick reply. Since my Okipage 4m won't print in the network (which includes a Workgroup Server 8550 running Mac OS X), I'm looking for an Apple Laserwriter 12/640 (though not easy to get even at eBay).
The router's docs don't mention anything about a possible Appletalk compatibility for the integrated print server. Will a Laserwriter 12/640 print anyway, even if the print job is sent from a Classic II with system 7? I don't know if Appletalk or IP has to be used for printing, and don't know if the DSL router (W-Linx 401 S) is able to route Appletalk.
