We have a Mac II (which is in fact a TI micro-explorer) linked to a
network of Suns via an ethernet card. Research to date suggests that if
we run uab as the bridge, we can then run cap on one of the Suns to
allow us transparent access to its laser printer from Mac applications
_without_ a Kinetics or other box. I've got the software - before I get
neck-deep in it, has anyone already done this? 

Any pointers/known pitfalls/hard-won experience gratefully received!
(especially since I'm no comms expert and so far have a very hazy idea
of what uab and cap do and in particular how they fit together).
