Ahem, OOps, I guess I do have this one after all. I used to have two

I hope so. Right now this machine is so far down on the priority list it
isn't even funny.It would make a damn nice print server though. I have now
three different printers and
even though technology allows me to put each of them on my ethernet network,
it is more

initiator can
go off to do more constructive things.
