   Subject:  Appletalk printer code

   Does anyone know of any code that would allow an ethernet connected host
   to talk to an appletalk connected laserwriter in the same fashion as
   a Mac on ethernet can do. This assumes either a kinetics or gatorbox
   connecting ethernet to appletalk. VMS or unix, free or $$$, anything will
   do.

CAP's papif willl allow you to set up an appletalk laserwriter to spool 
off a UNIX host.  You could then use lpr to print to it from any "dumb"
terminal on your network.  In addition, to have any "mac-sent" jobs to
spool off that same UNIX host, you can set up CAP's lwsrv. Anonymous
ftp to cunixc.columbia.edu will get you the CAP package...
