We have a dual-platform network -- and I've been using an HP deskjet 1220c for years. Not the greatest, but it worked fine with my Mac (graphics apps from Illustrator to Photoshop to Quark -- lots of printing on label paper, as I make custom wine labels) AND our PCs for general office stuff.

Just bought an Epson R800 because of the superior inks, etc.

Can't seem to network it into both the PC and the MAC -- but can do either one at a time.

I didn't even REALIZE (knothead that I am) that this was a NON-POSTCRIPT printer.

What does that mean to these Adobe applications on the Mac side? Will I have all the functionality that I am accustomed to?

Help? Should I punt on this printer?
