IT IS ALIVE!!! I just set up my XP Box to serve my USB Printer on my network. PC MacLAN puts a "fake" laserwriter on the Appletalk, and when it receives a printer job from my IIci (which is running the standard LW driver with system 7.1), it saves it as a postscript file. Then "Ghostscript Director" monitors the folder that PC MacLAN puts it in, and when it gets a file, it throws it at the GhostScript program, which outputs it to the printer. Quite a slow, roundabout way, but it works. I have yet to try it with my Sys6 Mac Classic on Localtalk (which is in turn connected to the IIci via Localtalk Bridge) Anyone having trouble setting up something like this on a PC? (if they have any boxen that are not 'niX)
