I have a QMS 810 Turbo printer on an Appletalk network, a FastPath
bridge between Appletalk and Ethernet (TCP/IP). I want to print
files from my Unix systems to the 810 printer.  
Has anybody ever done this?  Do I need special drivers on the Unix
end to get over the bridge, or can I use the standard printer 
facilities.  My confusion lies in whether or not the FastPath
makes the printer look like a straight Ethernet TCP/IP device or not,
or whether I have to send the printer files from the Unix end in 
some form of Appletalk format.
