Subject: re: Sharing Epson 800 PS over ethernet

We use PC-Mac LAN from Miramar systems. It works flawlessly for
accessing anything that appears on our Mac Appletalk Ethernet network.
The only requirment for printers, is that you have the PC versions of
the drivers for that printer. That is not a problem for the Epson 800.
We use an Epson Stylus Pro in much the same way. You will also have the
advantage of being able to see any shared drives from the PC, and to
share any of the PC drives onto the network.
The manual is well written, and their technical support was great the
one time we called. them.

Moderators comment: PCMacLan is an absolutely wonderful connectivity
product both in its Windows95 and NT iterations. It adds feature sets to
a PC that need connectivity to Macs that really is unavailable in
singular products, and for accessing Mac printers it is without peer. We
use it all of the time on our NT machines.

....
The problem is getting it to work with PC's on the LAN. What software
should be on the PC's to access the Epson on the LAN?
