printers running tcpip. Now, we have 4 new Mac users using the same network
devices. I have no knowledge about Mac OS. Can someone advise me how to
connect to the existing network and necessary hardware and software.

Thanks,

Robert,

Many thanks for your useful information and I will make a try later. I have an query in my mind and seeking your further advice. Even the file can be shared between Windows and Mac OSs the file format should be different. I notice the .xxx name is different in most cases in Mac OS. Is it the case to share a Word file created in Mac OS that can be viewed and/or edited in Windows OS?

Thanks,

Scott
