If you are running OS X it does not matter what processor your machine
has, just share the printer on the machine it is connected to. You also
shouldn't have a problem printing to it from the OS 9 machine, set it up
using the LaserWriter 8 driver and LPR.

Subject: [iBook] Wireless printing

Have an iBook 500 dual USB running OS 10.2.8 with an AirPort card and a 
Belkin 4-port wireless 802.11b router.  I have an iMac 333mhz and a 
Power Computing clone linked to the router via Ethernet.  The iMac is 
running OS 10.2.8, and the clone is running OS 9.0.  The iMac is 
connected via a four-port USB router (NOT USB 2.0) to a Canon i560 
printer.  Right now I unplug the USB cable and plug it into my iBook to 
print.  I'd like to lie in bed upstairs from the printer and print 
wirelessly from my iBook.  Any suggestions (I've looked on the Apple 
support site, but its iBook wireless networking solutions only seem to 
cover current (G4) iBooks, not my G3)?

Thanks in advance for any help.
