Tried out InterPrint on my IIfx today and I've got to say, it works beautifully!

macintoshgarden.org/apps/inter

This Chooser extension allows you to print to LPR queues over TCP/IP. But unlike the IP printing support in LaserWriter 8 (which "requires" Mac OS 8, though I think you can manually install it on as low as System 7.5.3), InterPrint works all the way down to System 6.0.5! It fully supports PostScript, too.

What this means for me is that after #MARCHintosh is over, I can repurpose my Raspberry Pi, which currently acts as an AppleTalk print server for my local network (and #GlobalTalk, by extension).

It has been 0 days since I updated an #Apple device, and had Apple Intelligence forcibly enabled despite disabling it a dozen times across devices linked to my Apple account already.

Please take the fucking hint Cupertino, I’m running out of patience.

I’ve used iPhones since the original. Not an Apple hater, just a scorned former user. I switched from Mac to Linux a decade ago & recently retired my 20-year-old iPod Classic for a Tangara music player. Apple’s lost vision has me ready to move on from iPhone as my primary device. #Apple
