Hi,

I am in the process of connecting our NeXT network with our Novell network and  
am wondering if it is possible to use a dot matrix print from the NeXT.  Our  
Novell net has Imagewriters, IBM Proprinters (9 pin) and a few IBM Graphics  
printers.  Are there drives for these printers?  How is conversion from  
postscript to text taken care of?  Is it, or can you only print from a limited  
number of applications, such as Edit?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.   
Please e-mail me and I will sumarize.  Thanks.
