First we'd need to know what printers you are going to use. Are drivers
for the Macintosh available for them? If the printers are on Ethernet and
accept AppleTalk, then you'd simply have to load the printer driver in your
Mac, connect your Mac to the Ethernet network (assuming there is no router
between the printer and the Mac) and print via the Chooser selection. If
the printers are TCP/IP and IPX only, you'd need to use the TCP/IP
connection by installing TCP/IP info on your Mac (get this info from the
Network Administrator). Then connect to the printers via the TCP/IP
connection. The whole key is to get the printer drivers for the Macintosh.
