Q: 10.4 to serial printer via 9.x server
Hi all,
I use my LaserWriter Select 300 on a beige G3 running 9.1, sometimes 9.2. I use this to print from my main system, which runs 10.4.11. I print to a PDF file, copy it over to the G3 and print using Acrobat 4.
Does anyone do similar and, if so, has anyone written a pair of folder action scripts to automate this? Such a script would sit on a "Print" folder one each system's desktop. Save print as a PDF to that folder, whose script connects to the server and copies the file to the G3 "Print" folder, whose script opens Acrobat and prints it.
Thanks
