Re: [Digital BW] 7000 on a Mac-PC network

2002-03-24 by John

Hi  Amadou,

I use both a Mac and a Pc networked together, I use photoshop on the Mac and
do everything else on the PC. My background is on the PC and I bought the
Mac strictly to use PS.
I use the program called Dave to network the two together, I have moved
files from the Mac to the PC for use with a program called Pro Shots and
show slide shows of my photography to clients. There was a need to link the
Mac to the cable modem and that was done with a hub and a linksys router
using eithernet.
The printer hooked to the PC is a Officejet G95 and is not compatible with
the Mac. The printer hooked to the Mac is the 1270.
I have the 1270 software on the PC but I have not been able to print through
the Mac, I have tried and could not get it to work even though in theory it
is supposed to work.
Not much help.

Regards,

John in Okc

Subject: [Digital BW] 7000 on a Mac-PC network


| I'm a Mac-based user running Piezo on a 1200. I'm considering
| a 7000 purchase in the Fall. Although ColorByte has been
| promising a Mac version of ImagePrint, there's no fully functional
| software for us Apple users. And the fate of Piezo2 is murky, at
| best. So if things don't change over the next quarter, I'm looking
| at having to buy a PC and run Piezo Pro b/w or a comparable
| Windows-based RIP.
|
| How easy or difficult is using a networked PC as a print server?
| I'd like to edit in PS on the Mac as usual, hit print (or export) and
| send the file on it's merry way to the PC. Is this possible, or will I
| need to print the image in a Windows environment? Are there
| other options for keeping an all-Mac setup? "All" I want is Piezo
| inks and image quality, on a wide format printer, w/o crossing
| over to the "dark side"   :-)
