Even this part would be very nice. I posted about it not that long ago, I think, but I'd have to buy three manuals (TBRs 1, 2, and 3) just to even START doing it, and I'm not that good at programming anyway. You'd need a CDEV to control the IP address that it goes to, and the driver would basically just run as a port driver, open a connection with Marinetti, and dump the raw data stream. No actual processing, so that much would be simple...
I'll check the System 6 Golden Master CD I have to see if there are programming examples. A simple CDEV with two input fields (IP and port number) shouldn't be hard to code.
Which reminds me... it's an HP. If you have a copy of Harmonie, have you tried using the Color DeskJet driver? HP says that it supports PCL6 and PCL5c, so it should be backwards compatible with a PCL3+c driver (like that used for the Color DeskJet.)
I don't have Harmonie (plus the 70+lb printer is nowheres near the IIgs), but the Deskjet drivers likely won't work correctly on a laser. I seem to recall the Deskjet's way of speaking PCL really didn't agree with Laserjets. Case in point, I just tried printing to the Color Laserjet using Window's HP Deskjet 550C driver (should be similar to Harmonie) and I got a document that was strictly B&W and horrible print quality, kinda like draft mode on an inkjet.
