Hi everybody,
I'm trying to recycle my old Mac Mini G4 and use it as a print/fax server.
How can I do that? Do you have any idea?
I thought about Tiger 10.4.11 as OS, but I really don't know anything else
about the general configuration of my Mac.
Thanks
Nicholas

For windows machines you just need to grab the PostScript drivers
from Adobe and set it up with that, using the generic driver and
using the util to connect to the printer on the Mac. I have a G3 BW
set up this way :)
