What have you got against networking your printers?  I'm not clear what
computers you actually have to network and I suppose getting a network card
for the A4000 might be a bit of a hurdle.

Whatever, using a printer server with all your computers talking to it
simplifies the whle shebang.  I've had four computers sending stuff to
three printers simultaneously at the height of my computer madness.  Being
a bit more sane now with just 2 computers normally and 1 printer with an
extra printer being connected for the occasional colour print.

Amend that to Get a PostScript printer, plug it into the printserver, be
done with it.
