I have papd installed, but its .conf file is currently empty. I will install ghostscript. CUPS is already running on quad, and I believe Samba is as well (but I'll check).

Meanwhile, a new question... I warned that I was a complete Macintosh noob.

I would like to install some new programs on the PowerBook, now that I actually can do so without trying to burn floppies. Unfortunately, all files I find for System 7 have the file extension .hqx, which my Powerbook apparently lacks the program to uncompress (Stuffit?). I looked for "Stuffit Expander", but the only versions of it that I can find are downloadable as .hqx files. A wonderful "Catch 22". The only software on my PowerBook at present is System 7 and a copy of Microsoft Word.

How can I find a version of Stuffit that runs on System 7 and is delivered as a self-extracting executable, or as something directly executable?
