Actually, the last time we had a printer connected to any Midrange box, it was an old (at least two generations older than my 2100M at home) PCL-only HP LJ, plugged into the parallel port on an InfoWindow II. And before that, a wide-carriage dot-matrix, plugged into a DOS-only PS/2, running PC Support.

I've become fairly adept with the spool-file-to-PDF functionality. And if I need a hardcopy source listing, I typically just copy and paste from a terminal session into TextEdit on my work Mac, and print from there.

The Xerox that I owned for less than 24 hours was for my home, to have been shared between my DOS box and my Mac.
