I'm getting to this discussion late, but I have a couple of observations. First, I don't think the Personal Laserwriter LS is a localtalk printer, meaning it's a plain old serial printer. Can you use this:

AHAHAHAH, I have to tell you, I can't relate. That and there are ways to get a LocalTalk printer on an ethernet network ...

Thanks. I guess I'll have to do a Dual Boot. My printer is too good to give

I'd love to find a way to get my Personal Laserwriter 300 to work somehow with OS X, but I have yet to find a way. I wound up connecting it to my 5500 but my OS X machines can't find it on the network. From what I've read, unless it's a Postscript printer, (and I guess the PLW 300 isn't) it won't work with OS X. I don't know if the LS is Postscript or not, but if it isn't you're out of luck.
