No special gateway is required. netatalk 1.2.1 (the currently released
version) does not do phase 2 appletalk, so you'll need to keep your
phase 1 appletalk drivers around on your mac. I'm not aware of anyone
who has tried netatalk with NeWSprint, but we are interested in seeing
it work.

If you upgrade your mac to 6.0.8, you'll get the system 7 print
drivers. It is a good idea to upgrade.
