New I used to use this as recently as 4 years ago.
It was working perfectly, when I left.

It was always just ... plug it in and it works.

I always had a dedicated appletalk port on these machines, you know the roundy one.

I also had an ethernet port as well. I could print to the printer(s) in more than one way. Through the Appletalk setup or through the Network to a different computer that was "sharing" the printer out, that printed to the printer through the Appletalk setup.

If it is not working, it is broke. (master of stating the obvious, I know)

The only problem I had was on the newer MACs we had gotten just before I left, they had no Appletalk port. But we rectified that by just printing to one that did have the Appletalk port.

New and yet, and yet
"If it is not working, it is broke." But it is working, my magic box. It takes data streaming out of the ethernet port, does its alchemy, and sends the transmuted bits to the printer, which then lays down the toner as directed. It simply will not, for some reason, perform this trick if the signal passes through a hub on its way from the computer to the EtherPrint-T. A puzzlement.

bewilderedly,
