Our home network has 2 iMacs, a PC- all sharing a DSL connection through an asante router- and 1 USB laser printer (connected to one of the iMacs). The second iMac can print via USB printer share. The Macs run OS 9 and the PC runs W98.
Question 1: If we were to install OS X on the iMacs and connected the USB printer to the PC, would the iMacs be able to print to the laser printer, just using OS X networking and without getting involved with anymore software? (Yes there are both OS X and W98 drivers for this printer.) Question 2: Would one of the Macs be able to access the Palm Desktop data on the PC? (All computers have Palm Desktop installed.)
