A400 MPEix 7.0.

=20

I have a couple of line printers currently connected via DTC48.

I have a DTC16ix already configured to replace the DTC48, but also have =
jet direct boxes available for these printers.=20

One way or the other the data all go over the network  whether 3000-DTC =
or 3000-jetdirect via IP.

The Serial portion of the path is the obvious limiting factor for print =
speed, but the datacomm is faster than the printer.

=20

I'm wondering about network performance, spooler reliability et al DTC =
vs Network Printers.

Packet size to DTC vs to JetDirect?



Anybody got any thoughts?
