Comment:

Is it possible to connect my old (but very nice and still working) mac printer, Personal LaserWriter, to a PC running Win98? As I understand, you can do this with several mac-printers by using a simple serial cable and a 'standard'-driver.

I would be grateful if anyone can give me the pinout for that cable.

Thanx!

The 320 won't work on a PC.

Yes its possible, even under NT Station, by network you must find a Hpjetdirect Ex and connect it between your server and printer and then you can install your printer on PC with nothing else (no driver etc... because it's provided by your server or HPJetadmin).
