That could be your problem... I know you need v2.0 or higher on the
Mac end for AppleShare to work, but I'm not sure about printer sharing
though. Also, if I recall correctly, you have to fiddle with the
software to allow connection from Apple IIs. I'm not very sure about
all this though, since it's been about a year ago when I helped a
friend set up a demo Appletalk network with a IIGS, //e, Mac II and an
IBM. It was pretty neat, but I forgot most of the details...

Anyways, try to get the latest version of the AppleTalk stuff for the
Mac. I think it's v2.1 or something... You can get it from America
Online or from apple.com by anonymous ftp.
