I'm about to move my office to another building and am faced with
the problem of finding a postscript printer to which I can connect
my Mac.  There is a LaserWriter located relatively near my new
office that is connected to 7 Macs via AppleTalk.  That network
appears to be at capacity.  One of the users connected to that
printer told me that the last time they tried adding another user,
they could no longer print and the Chooser could no longer find
the LaserWriter.

What's the best way to expand this network?  Some of the cable runs
are fairly long, so it is probably operating near the maximum
cumulative cable length.  Is there some peripheral that we could buy
that would let one or two additional users plug in to the network
without requiring a change to the 7 nodes already connected?  Do we
have to do something to all of the existing connections?

Any/all advice will be appreciated.  Please post or mail as appropriate.

Thanks, Barry.
