well, I don't have my bridge near to know the exact name, as it's in my
office, but I have the Asante MicroPrint Printserver here (Asante MicroPrint
is its name), a very neat piece of HW that you hook up to your Apple printer
with LocalTalk cable, and it gets you an ethernet connection to your
ethernet network, and furthermore you have a printserver... I used it to
print from Macs and PCs to my Apple Personal LaserWriter 320 for quite some
time, and it worked quite well... configuration is a piece of cake, don't
worry...
the bridge and my 360 are in the office, and it's week-end :)
but I really recommend the MicroPrint, though I can't remember if I printed
from OsX, but I guess this shouldn't be an issue, as it's just Apple
LaserWriter language, that OsX probably understands anyway...
those printers are great in my opinion, real workhorses, and I love mine...
btw: where do you get toners? my supplier doesn't seem to be able to bring
them any more, and though I still have one left... or can I refill it? would
also be an option, I don't wanna give it up because I find no
toner-cartridge... would be a pity...

The problem with our world is stupidity. I'm not saying there should
be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the
safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

you don't actually want to get the printer directly into your network
via ethernet, without using a computer to share it... I always thought
this to be the simplest solution, first of all because so you don't have
to power up any computer to be able to print,
Well, well yes of course you can insist or assist. I was afraid of the
OSX computers not printing directly to the Apple 360, Soo, as I usually
use ApplWorks to do my word processing, I thought I could type the
material send it to 6100 which runs just about all the time and print it
out through the Apple 360, which is still a very capable printer and
still produces excellent documents.
So from reading ahead, it appears that it's look for a bridge, anyone
know the excat name of this product or device, I do not want a bridge to
nowhere.
Thanks for all the great advice. This has to be the best help list.
