GatorPrint is really, truly, horribly, stupid.  There's no local
storage in a GatorBox, so it can't spool output.  This leads to
some interesting behavior...

Also, if you want to be able to print from more than one machine,
you have to configure a separate "queue" on the GatorBox for
*every* workstation, or you have to have N-1 machines print
"indirectly" through one server you designate to have a sole
link to the GatorBox.

Two thumbs down from this reviewer.
