We are finally updating some elementary schools to panther
server/client, eliminating their 5400/5500 powerpc's Currently,
teachers are printing to their own serial port Apple laserwriters -
old, but they work great. Looking for a solution to teacher printing:
1. Have had varied success with serial port/usb adapters, so that may
not allow the continued uses of the laserwriters.
2. In buildings with enough classroom drops, could you leave a 5500 on
the network just as a printer connection - would it show up in
appletalk and allow printing in os x and classic.
3. If you've dealt with this kind of issue, what was your solution for
teachers who are used to printing in their own rooms?
Thanks,
Mark
