I have a few printing problems:

1. Printing from a 7100 to a Laserwriter (using appletalk over phonenet)
- I can't create a desktop printer using the chooser. Everything 
appears to work fine but no desktop printer appears.
- I can create a desktop printer using the Desktop Printer Utility. 
However, when I try to print to that printer I get a -8940 error.
- Following the advice of Apple's knowledge base I have deleted the 
desktop printers, deleted the printer preferences, deleted the parsed 
PPD folder and rebuilt the desktop all to no avail.

2. Printing from an iBook (OSX) to a Personal LaserWriter 300 (using 
a 7500 as a print server)
- I can't find an OS X driver for this printer. I have looked at 
Linuxprinting.org and Gimp_Print among other sites and have found 
nothing.
- I tried printing to PDF and printing it out using Acrobat but the 
printout looks terrible

3. Printing from an iBook (OSX) to a LaserWriter (using a 7500 as a 
print server)
- I have found an OSX driver for this printer. Unfortunately, it also 
puts a grey background behind everything I print.

Does anybody have any suggestions for my printer woes?
