Dear List,
I just took over my son's old 400 G-4 Yikes model, and have it on
the other side of my desk with my S-900. I am wondering how to print from
the the G-4 to my two local talk, or serial port printers, a Lexmark Optra
R+ and a HP 6MP Laser Jet. Neither have ethernet connections and I thought
of getting that local talk to Ethernet Asante router but it has a stiff
price, about eighty dollars or up. Are there any advantages to printing
through the Ethernet Local talk connector on the S-900. It's almost cheaper
to go the route of buying a Samsung USB laser printer at J&R but if the
local talk to Ethernet will speed up the S-900 printing I might go that
way.
By the way, I got a strange HP 9.1 10K says it is a 160 SCSI
/SCA2/LVD drive when I thought I was getting a Fujitso regular wide drive
on E-Bay, with the SCA adaptor. It's too much trouble to return it but I am
wondering whether it's worth putting this into one of the S-900's. Does
anyone have any experience. Is there any way to check on whether this is a
new drive (as I thought) or a refurbished one.It is in a sealed plastic
container with what looks like the HP warranty stickers in place but no
information except the Serial and Part Numbers. Not quite sure how I
protest this--it certainly makes me wary of E-bay. Do I need an additional
fan to install this. I have a Miles card in one of my two S-900's and could
possibly hook it up if I can figure out the cables, power connectors, etc.
No manual came with it just the SCA adaptor and some plastic things for the
jumpers.
Mark
