Question # 2 is about the Wallstreet. Since I could install the
laserprinter, I would like to go for the old scanner too. How do I go from the
USB to the Wallstreet? I do not see anything obviously compatible--at least to
me...
For USB on a Wallstreet you should buy a PC card ( PCMCIA to be exact but also
called Cardbus card) that fits into the PC slot on the left hand side of your
Wallstreet.
Something like this

and it doesn't have to be a Mac specific one nor require drivers either.
Just make sure you have the right printer driver for your OS and you should be
good to go.
I suggest a four port card because in my Wallstreet I have the same with my
printer attached, a USB mouse ( I hate using laptop trackpads for more than a
minute ) and I always seem to have a flash drive plugged in as well leaving
just one port spare.
