[muglo] classic printing?

I've been really frustrated since I've been trying to make OSX my 
main OS. I have some questions about printing. I've searched the web, 
and all I get is more confused.

Can printing be done in classic mode? I have a serial printer. I 
choose it in the chooser in classic mode, but I cant seem to turn 
appletalk off (a little blurb comes up saying open network 
preferences and choose appletalk, but I have no idea what this 
means). Appletalk isnt even supported in classic, so why cant I turn 
it off?
Anyway, I go to print and I get an error in classic, similar to os9, 
saying please make sure a printer is connected blah blah, well it is, 
obviously it just cant see it.

What good are classic apps if you cant even print from them??

I have also unsuccessfully tried to print with my Imagewriter in OSX. 
I installed the drivers from linuxprinting.org, but while the 
imagewriter starts to print, it stops and never prints the last 2 
lines of any document.

Seems like all my older serial devices I thought would work in 
classic at least, wont even work at all.
This is getting to be more frustrating than Windowz problems....

anyone printing in classic mode? if so , how?
