I did the same thing, making a Cado (contel) computer think it was
printing, and it was actually dumping the files over the modem to my
Mac.  This was for a price sheet, and the company had NO other way to
do it - It was my first month using the Mac, too...  I was pretty
proud of myself for thinking of it.  So now what do I do?  About the
same.  If something isn't broken, don't fix it!
