I have a 400 mhz G3 B&W with 640 mb of memory running 10.3.9. I'm a long-term
PC gearhead but new to the Mac, and struggling with networking for printing. I
have 2 PCs - and now this G3 - on a home network through a Linksys router fed
by Verizon broadband. This is functional out of the box - the Mac can see the
workgroup and the shared folders on each computer, and I'm sending this message
on the network.
For printing I use a Zonet ZPS2102 print server to an old HP4 and a new HP1600.
The Zonet installation files are all exe and dll, as are all of my driver and
utility discs for the printers. On the HP site for the HP4 I find all the MS
drivers and OS/2 and Unix, and for the Color Laserjet 1600 I find all the MS
drivers and Linux.
Zonet doesn't list any drivers different than the dos/win ones on the
installation cd, but I found an archived 2005 message in a discussion group "I
use the ZPS-2102 with both Macintosh and Windows machines, and have a Canon
Pixma iP8500 and HP LaserJet 6MP connected."
So what I want to do apparently is possible. How can I print from my G3 to
these two printers?
