Yes, the printer is connected to a beige G3, but he's printing from the G4. I don't mind setting up a network between my 5215CD (which is running OS 8.1), and the B & W G4, but now I can't get access to the Extensions Manager, which is another problem in itself.
As it stands, my sister can use the IW II with both colour, and black ribbons to get the job done, but that leaves a perfectly decent working LW 300 (with fairly new toner) sitting in storage.
