      <p>Netatalk is used to communicate from TCP/IP to AppleTalk
      printers and vice versa. The Netatalk distribution FAQ is at:
      <a href="http://www.umich.edu/~rsug/netatalk" target=
      "_top">http://www.umich.edu/~rsug/netatalk</a>. Also, The
      University of Melbourne web site <a href=
      "http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/appletalk/" target=
      "_top">http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/appletalk/</a> has additional
      tutorial and installation information. In addition, Anders
      Brownworth's Web page <a href=
      "http://thehamptons.com/anders/netatalk/" target=
      "_top">http://thehamptons.com/anders/netatalk/</a> has a
      useful collection of information for Linux users.</p>

      <p>The University of Michigan doesn't seem to be doing
      anything more for <b class="APPLICATION">netatalk</b>, and
      Adrian Sun has continued development. You'll find his updates
      at <a href="ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/users/asun/testing/"
      target=
      "_top">ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/users/asun/testing/</a> He
      has improved <b class="APPLICATION">netatalk</b> considerably
      over the last UMich version. Documentation on <b class=
      "APPLICATION">netatalk</b> is, unfortunately, almost
      non-existent.</p>

      <p>There are a couple of very active mail lists for Netatalk:
      <a href="mailto:netatalk-admins@umich.edu" target=
      "_top">netatalk-admins@umich.edu</a> and <a href=
      "mailto:linux-atalk@netspace.org" target=
      "_top">linux-atalk@netspace.org</a>.</p>

      <p>After you have installed and gotten <b class=
      "APPLICATION">netatalk</b> working you can use the following
      AppleTalk configuration file to print from a Macintosh to an
      <b class="APPLICATION">LPRng</b> printer.</p>
