That's precisely what I'm doing -- what do you want to know about it?
In brief, I'm using a Dayna EtherPrint box connected to the
AppleTalk port of a Personal LaserWriter NTR, and a serial
connection from my DS5000. I'll append my printcap file below; I
did run mkserv print, ran /etc/makespools, etc., but don't have
anything else too fancy going on. It works like a charm!
Let me know if there's specific info you need, config files you'd
like to see, whatever.
