You mentioned your NeXT will be hooked up to the GatorBox via ethernet. Great!  
All you have to do now is edit your printcap. Uncomment the Net Laserwiter  
entry in /etc/printcap. You probably need to modify this entry to work with  
your local situation, more information about the various flag settings can be  
found under 'printcap' in the UNIX manual pages (man printcap, or use  
Librarian).

Good Luck!
