 I have a few questions that maybe someone can answer. My father is a
graphic designer and he has a lab of macs that he andhis students use for
 basic and andvanced design. The most frequently used programs include
macwrite , pagemaker, letrastudios and aldus freehand. He wishes to 
purchase a color printer in the near future. And he would like that
printer to be postscript. He recently talked with a next rep who
suggested using a colorstation as a printserver for the next
colorprinter. He likes the next as great deal and would like one but 
he cannot afford to be isolated from his macs. 1) How easy would it be 
to hook up the macs and the next? 2) What could he and could he not 
do accross platforms? 3) Could the next be a file server? 4) Does
nextstep  3.0 allow this?  Please, if anyone knows what could be done
, we would appreciate your knowledge.

                Thank You
