Re: Personal LaserWriter LS on WallStreet

[Kochkodin]

I have used the Keyspan USB/Serial adapter w/my PLW LS on an imac se 400 
and pismo 400 w/out any problem...Running 10.2.3 on both....The LS died 
(scanner motor malfunction) and I need to figure out how to hook up my 
PLW NTR..I did get a Dayna Ethernet Bridge for LocalTalk printers but 
haven't figured out what to do with it...Someone said that the Asante 
bridge is the best...Someone on the LEM Swap list had one but 
disappeared after I asked about it..Any suggestions???
Regards,
Mike

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

up for OS X.


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.
