Two other suggestions for printing:

1. get a network printer that already speaks TCP/IP "lpd" protocol. Best
win. It will already have its own processor to do rasterization, and NetBSD
speaks "lpd".

2. NetBSD support for AppleTalk printers is in progress; the NetAtalk
kernel support is already in place, and I am sure that Bill Studenmund is
working hard on the servers and utilities. Once these exist, it will be
possible to print directly to an AppleTalk speaking printer (Apple, or
other).
