I developed a Carbon application (printer utility) which communicates with
PAP printer (PAP server), for one printer manufacture last year. It works
on both MacOS 8.6-9.x and X.
MacOS X has different scheme about PAP. On MacOS X, there are no printer
driver which contain PAP code, OpenTransport no longer support ATP and PAP
(also ADSP, ASP and AFP).
I created a tiny Carbon application as a sample to demonstrate my skill. It
is named OTZIPSample, because it obtains AppleTalk zone information by using
OpenTransport ZIP, and it also displays a printer status by using PAPStatus.
API for PAPStatus come from OpenTransport on classic, AppleTalk framework on
X.
If you are interested in it you can download from our web site, although
only Japanese version is available for now.
(1) To download it, go to:

(2) Click 'OTZIPCarbon', then click 'Japanese version, click here'
If you want to develop (or extend) such application, please hire me.
