Everything on the localtalk side of the iPrint is strictly AppleTalk. TCP can be tunnelled through AppleTalk using MacIP which is one of the built-in options, but the iPrint does not know how to convert the MacIP packets back to real TCP. A GatorBox or a FastPath could replace the iPrint and give you this capability. You might need to manually assign IP addresses to the old Macs anyway. A better solution is to just get ethernet adapters for every Mac. -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
