    I'm not sure how I would "name" something that I can't see as a
    device on the network?

    Sure. If it weighs in at more than 4.5 megs or so, please write
    to tell me so first and I'll set up an ftp space for you. What
    you have is a classic application, though, and I don't know
    (even if my computer can find the Etherwave in order to name
    it), if I name an appletalk device in the Classic environment,
    whether OS X will recognize that fact./

    But anything is worth a try! Thanks!

    If I can't get this to work, I will just put the HP on my XP Pro
    and try to figure out how to share the printer to Macs.
