My boss says today "Why dont you take one of those old Macs sitting under your desk and make it a print server?

I have a G3/300 - ZIP - CD-RW - it has Ethernet, 2 USB ports and a parallel port

We have a USB'/parallel HP LaserJet 1300 that came with some type of parallel-port print server dongle thing, a USB Epson Stylus Photo R320 and an HP 2410 Photosmart all-in-one USB printer

Our network is mixed, with -so far - a G4 Powerbook and B&W G3/350 - both running OS X 10.4.4 - and 4 PC's running XP Home and Pro

Where do I start with turning the Beige G3 into a print server - should I install Linux on it?

Thanks for any advice

Sean Chandler
