A friend of mine works in a Mac-hostile environment (they have only PC:s
there), and wants to use his own Mac at work with PC printers and scanners.
Following topics are of interest:

a) Are there any Paintjet drivers available for Mac? If you have used one,
   please tell if it is of any use. Also, what about necessary cables etc?

b) The same for Scanjet. My friend knows there is a driver available, but he
   doesn't know anything about it.

c) There should be a program (or two programs, one running on a Mac and 
   the other on a PC) that make it possible to use PC remotely from a Mac -
   the user should be able to copy/paste from the PC-window on the Mac, etc.
   If such a beast actually exists, info would be welcome. And, of course,
   do you think the thing is of any use at all?


Please reply by mail, to avoid wasting the bandwidth.

Thanks.
