[Sunhelp] Printer Companies

Buy an HP LaserJet with an HP JetDirect Interface card.

HP Jetdirect software is available for Solaris, G3 Mac, PC, and likely Linux
too.
It interfaces with the native print spooler for each OS.

Jet direct Interfaces include ethernet, USB, localtalk, serial.
An ethernet model is probably best for your situation..

A cheap entry level card is about 100 (see
http://www.hp.com/net_printing/ppss/j4135a_info.html)

Alternatively should you not want an HP printer, external Jetdirect
interfaces are available that should work with most 3rd party printers.

To whom it may concern,

	I have a Sun Ultra 10 workstation and I wish to purchase a
printer that I can connect to this workstation and share it between
this box, my Linux workstation, and my wife's G3 workstation. I have a
budget of $500. I am not certain of a company that sells Solaris/Sparc
compatible printers and I doubt I could just go buy one at Best Buy.
	Anything thoughts or opinions would be helpful.

Thank you,
