I've been reading this thread and trying to find time to reply.

I tried to setup this exact thing on my work machine and got a bit farther
than you, Adam. My Newton can see the printer, but once I try to send the
print job no data makes it and the connection just times out. Anyways.

You never mentioned exactly what kind of AP you are using. Some don't support
AppleTalk packets and will drop them to the floor. What brand/model of
wireless AP are you using?
