This is a follow-up to my effort to make a LaserWriter visible to
MacOS, A/UX, an Amiga with SVR4 and a NeXT machine.

The LaserWriter is connected to a Mac II running System 6.0.7.  It has
EtherTalk 2.0.1 and the AppleTalk Internet Router 2.0.  The router
is running, ethertalk is selected.

Problem: whenever I choose LaserWriter, I can see all the LaserWriters
in my zone _EXCEPT_ the one I'm trying to hook up.  On the other
hand, if I disable the router and select the built-in network, I
*can* see that printer.

Is there anything obvious I've missed?  Right now, all I want is for
that new printer to be visible from other machines (all of which
have EtherTalk).

Thanks!
