We have a network of suns and one lone un-netted Mac Se. The Mac has no
special network hardware (i.e. Ethernet stuff), and has a Laser printer
hooked on.

My boss says he wants this mac interfaced somehow, and wants it done
for the least about of $$$ possible. My question is, what are the networking
hardware/software options?

1) Can the Mac be hooked to a Sun via the serial ports to run some kind
of SLIP? The Mac wouldn't be extensively used for real-time stuff, mostly
file transfer etc.

2) Can other things (i.e. the Sun) be made to send files to the Mac's
Laser printer?

	Thanks for the help,
