Re: printing on a small Ethernet with 8.6 and 9.2

the G3 will have to be switched on for this to work. If your printer is connected in some other way I'm afraid I can't think of a solution. No - it's a parallel connection into a USB at the computer endperhaps i should advertise for a copy of 9.X OS and install that on the G3... T Tom Lewis

printing on a small Ethernet with 8.6 and 9.2

in the Choosers, and can mount the HDs on the desktops as desired. I understand there is a method of sharing the printer between the three computers so that all can print.
