Doesn't the HP 5MP have an infrared port. I remember getting free
print-outs at the local Office max with my newton 2100. All you need is a
driver, no?

> I have worked with the HP 5 MP some time ago. This was especially in an
environment with Windozes and a few Macs.

from GDTSoftworks.
> The aim was to connect all of them to the HP printer.
> As far as I remember the solution was to buy a printserver plug-in module
for the HP, because the Printer came "naked" only with parallel Centronics
interface as usual (ok, nowadays more often you will find the stupid USB).
> So I suggest to use either an Ethernet Card in the Newt or an LocalTalk to
Ether Bridge. There is another solution available from Farallon, it is
called iPrint Adapter.
