We have a small network of unix workstations (Silicon Graphics Iris
workstations running a flavor of SysV).  We are planning on purchasing
a postscript laser printer (like a QMS-PS 820 Turbo) for them.  We are
also planning on purchasing a Max IIcx.  What is the best way to get the
Mac to talk to the printer, which is hooked to one of the workstations,
while running under MacOS?  I assume, of
course, we need an ethernet interface card, but what else?


Please e-mail suggestions to me at scfisher@dtoa1.dt.navy.mil

Thanks again,
