Neither printer is PostScript. The gibberish you get printing from the Mac is the printers poor attempt at interpreting the PostScript commands. The 1100 can probably never print from a Mac. The 3320 may be a possibility if you research Third Party options (such as PowerPrint and others). If the only connection to the 3320 is USB then networking from a Mac may be futile. HP may have emulation software to print direct from a Mac with the printer direct connected to the Mac usb port.
You need a PostScript printer (inkjet or laser) that autodetects PCL or PostScript to print trouble-free from both Mac and peecee. I recently bought on eBay an HP DeskJet 1600CM (PostScript and PCL, color, 10ppm, Parallel and Ethernet connections) for less than twenty bucks plus another $25 for shipping. Any Apple LaserWriter that does both PostScript and PCL should work with the Parallel connection on your printserver. Make sure there are drivers for Jaguar.
