I don't know whether this is the correct board to ask the following, but:

Can anyone recommend a laser printer (<�500) which is compatible with both a
PowerPC (pre. USB) and a PC laptop (with parallel, SCSI & USB ports). Is it
just worth buying a USB laser and getting an interface card for my Mac?

Any help would be appreciated.  Please reply by email.

You could buy PowerPrint for the mac which comes with a serial<->Parallel
converter and printer drivers. However, I would have thought a more useful
solution would be a cheap PostScript printer with an Ethernet and Parallel
interface, or even just the Ethernet interface and get an Ethernet PC Card
for the portable.
