[G4] Connecting a printer

[Manoah F. Adams]

Hello,

I haven't tried a direct (not-through-hub) printer connection, but I  
recall that computer-to-computer ethernet connections need to use a  
'crossover' cable (Ethernet cable with the TX/RX pair crossed).  
Connecting to the printer directly might need such a cable as well.   
They are not usually very easy to tell from the normal cables, and  
are rare, though.
