Bull feathers. Then why do they include a driver for it in OS X? > When I mentioned > I had Asante products in the mix, he indicated since there were > non-Apple products in the mix, Apple doesn't get into system setup or > troubleshooting (said to get a consultant). > > I would be satisfied to print via ethernet; I would be thrilled to > print to it via the wireless setup. Anybody have insight/possible > solutions to this? Bry- The print server on your router should work as long as 1) the printer is PS2 and 2) you have the driver installed. A driver comes with OS X. You can try using a parallel port cable from the LW Select 360 (nice old workhorse) to the router. According to Asante's info, this should work just fine. You might find the tech support folks at Asante more helpful and better informed. Please let us know how it works out.
