Yes, you can mix System 5 and 6 and have everyone use System 5 printing
resources. I didn't know you could use System 6 printing resources with
System 5. If that is true, then we could easily put everyone on System
6 printing resources and not worry about which system they use. Can 
someone confirm this? It would really help us a lot. My boss isn't very
excited about spending a weekend here updating all of the rest of the
systems (even with my help :-)).
