Ok, here's a bunch of questions, some of which might be (at least one is) in the FAQ, but I can't get at the FAQ now, so, sorry in advance. 1> I have a PC (urgh 8-) and a NeXT mono - want to hook both into an HP IIIP w/ PS Level 2 cartridge. Anyone know if you can make the IIIP respond to both the serial port and the parallel port automatically? Or do I have to change the settings some how? Anyone do this and find a good system to use? 2> Related to 1, what exactly do I have to do to hook up to the IIIP? I got a 040 modem cable, I need to make a printcap entry, right? Anyone got one they can send me? 3> Can you hook a mono monitor to a color station? How about the reverse? Also, where can you buy a cable to hook a color up to a Nanoi T-560i? 4> Any way to make the NeXT CD-Rom player play through the Monitor's (or sound box's) RCA ports rather than its own? Yes, I've played with CDPlayer and CDAudio, but I would like to go through the NeXT... 5> You know how when you print out something (say, a view) and it's bigger than the page, it splits it onto multiple pages? It seems to screw up a lot for me, splitting only horizontally, I believe. Is this fixed in 3.0? 6> Anyway to draw using alpha mode with normal PS code? By that I mean without using composite.... 7> Is there any Fax software for the Supra Fax Modem, NOW? I know there were two companies working on it, but I haven't heard if they actually have a product yet. Sorry if this is a waste of bandwidth. Please excuse any spelling errors, grammatical errors, lapse of judgement, general stupidity, or lack of sanity. Thanks, Dan Hartman omv@athena.mit.edu
