We have a small (4 Mac's, one PC clone, one LaserWriter) TOPS network,
originally installed to give the PC printer access but now used for
some file sharing and backup also.

We recently purchased two Sun Sparcstations.  TOPS is available for these,
but what we'd like to do is use a Sun to spool LaserWriter output.  We can
do this for PC's connected to the Sun via Ethernet, but what about the
Mac's?  I called TOPS, they said a future version will support this but
it's not available now.  Does anyone know of a product or combination
of products to provide this function?

Please reply to me and I will summarize for the net if appropriate.  Thanks.
