I got my G4 during the period when Apple was shipping with both
OS9 an OSX, so ugrading is not the issue.  It's just that I have 
everything else running under OS9 now, so switching into OSX mode
just to print would be a pain.  

Is it worth doing this, or moving my working environment to OSX
(I wonder how much more slowly Photoshop 6 runs under "Classic"
mode than under OS9 ?) to get gimp-print ?  How close is it to
being the magic bullet for reliable consistent B&W printing ?
