We have several printers running here with various dot matrix/laser/ink jet
printers hooked up. If the printer in question, is not usb, then I would
suggest just using Redhat 6.2 for your print server. This is what we have
done. If it is a usb printer, then make sure that your 486 has a usb port
(yes some do) and then install redhat 7.3.
We have as little as a 486dx2/50 supporting two dot matrix printers. Our
uptime for this box is 207 days. The only time that it needs rebooted is
when there is a significant power outage.
