We are going to receive in the near future 10 Mac's, 5 Imagewriters, and 1 LaserWriter. I understand that I can use Appletalk to network the Mac's in order to share the LaserWriter. Is there a better network than Appletalk to do this? Also, how can I take advantage of a network to share the Imagewriters? Or should I just settle for A/B switches to share 5 printers among 10 Mac's. Any and all responses will be appreciated. Keith Pratt (206)-241-3387 !uw-beaver!ssc-vax!ssc-bee!bmac1
