Sorry to be hard-headed but now I'm confused! I've almost given up on
getting my LWS360 to print from Macs when it's only connected to the NT
server, so right now I have a little LC575 w/Ethernet connecting the printer
to the network using a LW Bridge. I connect the PCs to the printer simply
over the network using NT. Could I physically connect the NT box to the
printer AND have the LC575 connected directly and see no problems? Would
this increase printing speed from PCs?
