re: printing services, here's what's currently available w/ netatalk
and your typical mac:
(unix) lpr -> pap -> appletalk printer
(mac) laserwriter 8 -> papd -> lpd -> printer
to see printers across a ppp line, you'll need to either tunnel ddp in
ip or get a ppp which supports appletalk. i'm under the impression
that apple's soon-to-be-released laserwriter 8.5 will allow printing
over tcp/ip via lpd. with the appropriate setup, then, you should
either be able to directly print to an ethernetted printer that
supports lpd or via a pap spooler if it doesn't. does that clear up
things?
