Howdy,

With the rapid decline of Appletalk, network printing from Newtons is
becoming more difficult.

I've heard various vague references to the ability to "export" a simulated
Appletalk print queue from a Windows or Unix box that will receive a print
job via Appletalk and then bridge the job to an IP (or serial or parallel I
suppose) connected printer.

Does this ring any bells? Has anybody accomplished this? I have
Windows-networked laser printers at the office, and at home I have an
inkjet connected to my OSX Mac via USB. I can reach neither from my Newton
over Ethernet.

Any ideas?

-Jeremy
