You use the chooser (under apple menu) to select a printer and select appletalk printer. This should work for all printers having postscript and i am quite sure your printer has. Finding a specific os 9 driver might be more difficult, but a generic driver will work, although using the extra tray...

If your drive does not show up in a disk utility, it is most likely bad. If you can boot from an os 9 cd and the mac works properly, it looks like the hardware of the mac is fine. In the old days (with pc) it would work by rewriting the mbr, which - when damaged - prevents the system from...

Compare your settings with another system at work. It is possible that the settings inside the network differ from the settings outside the network. Also always use full names for the server names, this can cause problems too. Do you get any error messages. CAN you PING to the mailserver...

I am not sure, but you could try clearing the PRAM of the MAC (this is done i thought by pressing alt-option-p-r during bootup and hold down until it restarts for the third time). Also you can try to boot from another drive (e.g. a cd / dvd with os 9 on it and adjust the display settings)...

Victory is usual declare a few minutes too early, so i would wait for them (and than again being a few minutes too early). But if it did not last for that long in the past, you have a good chance you can at least go victory shopping ... Good luck and happy victory, Kees

It will start from an available startup disk in your case it might be the OS X installation disk in the cd-drive. You can also force the computer to start from the CD (or DVD) by pressing the C key while turning on your computer. Also undo any changes done are receiving the computer on the...

The amount of memory is not that important, add more if you less you do not have enough. Fast (and large) drives are the main issue for file servers. All the additional services can be run easily on the file server, that file sharing will be the bottle neck, the rest should not be a noticable...

The C key works on any os as it is os indepented. The C key forces the firmware to try to boot from CD (whatever os is on it). The option gives you a menu of the available startup disks with whatever OS is on it. C is use to boot from the CD, OPTION is used to select a different startup disc...

I have no real clue, but maybe they go to standby mode and do not reconnect properly when coming back to live. Do both systems disappear at the same moment (even when booted at a completely different moment) ? Good luck, Kees

One server might be enough but i think is better to take 2 to spread the load and improve reliablity (although my file server is down about 1 to 2 times a year and the mail server about the same time. The mail server does not need to be to heavy loaded, unless you do a lot with mail (like...

There are a couple of ways to do that. One is to link the MAC address to an IP-number. This tells the router to provide the same ip-number to that MAC address which is the equivalent of a static address. What i use myself is a real static address by picking an ip-number outside the range...

Just forget this reply, it was a double up one. Good luck, Kees

If you need to know the IP-number assigned by your provider (even if you are behind a router) just enter: http://www.whatismyip.com/ Good luck, Kees

In some OS X versions you can find this setting in the following file: /private/etc/hostconfig Just edit and reboot to have it (partially fixed). Good luck, Kees

This is the memory dane suggests for your powerbook. It also has a special code c58. I do not suggest using ddr-400 as they do not list it and they would list it if it would work oke. 1024MB DDR 333 MHz SODIMM DA-PBG4333-1024 sdram = pc-133 is older memory. (earlier versions are pc-66...

Maybe, but the issue is that you did not provide any valuable information in that you had already multiple access points available. Being in rage is no reason to expect support without coming to your senses and provide it eventually. If you come to it, you find the solution yourself...

You can also try to setup a network between the mac's. You only need a cross-cable (very cheap - but not a straight = 1-1 cable). This will transfer you files quickly. Good luck, Kees

If it jumps when moving, ther is usual an option = align to grid or something like that. Turn it off and it should move smoothly. Also you cn try to specify the positions, that might also work. Good luck, kees

That will usual not work for messages send, only for messages waiting to be retreived from the provider (and he has to support imap (used by webmail)). The message might very well not show up in the OUT box, unless you send it using WEBMAIL. Good luck, Kees

I use a nec drive ad7173 in my g5 and it is heaven as burning goes multiple times quicker (18 speed in stead of 2/4 speed). Save yourself a lot of time and buy a new one, the price is not worth the effort. Good luck, Kees
