OK, I can't use the LocalTalkPCI' or the 'LocalTalk Bridge', since this requires either an ethernet connection or LocalTalk connection on the printer, and the LW 300 has only the 8-pins connector > [....] Your problem is surely different, because you cannot find the > driver > for your printer. But as to the network speed, I think 10 Mbit > Ethernet is sufficient. Hm... Maybe the 10mbits are enough, but in any cases I am going to have 100mbits cards on al machines by-and-by, since the one machine souyld be a kind of 'music-server' - connected to my music recording equipments with what I call 'Direct Recording to transfer', - which means that I can record and immediately send the recording to the editing machine. Here a 100mbits line is positively needed. > I don't know if this is of any help for you, but who knows... Indeed, it insures me in my own thoughts about the printer server, but with the old LW 300 I'm going to use it as a shared printer by using the 'Printer Sharing' extension and enable this in all apps and systems on the other machines. - I think it'll work!
