Hi Matt

I got it to work today.
on the newton side I set the server to my computer's IP address ( if
you are unsure open system preferences and look at Network) Queue is "
lp on 'your ip address' "
Server.........192.168.1.100
Queue.........lp on 192.168.1.100
spool job before sending it is checked

While I have had success with Escale I prefer NCU with ethernet in
classic.
