Andrew, How are you going to connect to the LaserWriter? I have one connected to a Mac that I print to using some software called lpDaemon. The daemon is quite old, but it works on my system. The only other way I know of is to use the serial port on the printer. I've not done that on Linux, but wouldn't think it to be a problem. It is a Postscript printer.
One thing on the IINT: you can only switch between the serial port and the AppleTalk port a limited number of times (around 100 or so I think). The eprom or whatever in there gives out after that. The NTX doesn't have that issue. Ernest Johanson Web Systems Administrator Fuller Theological Seminary On Fri, 3 Sep 1999, Richard E.
