Dear Forum:

I have a Laserwriter 300 which I would love to use in OS X. I know that
officially printers such as mine are not supported in OS X. LocalTalk
printers ,such as the Laserwriter 320, are supported when using a
LocalTalk-to-Ethernet adapter.

It was also my impression that serial printers of any kind could not
function in OS X. This impression was blown out of the water, however,
when I saw that the Imagewriter (which uses QuickDraw like the Laserwriter
300) will work in OS X via a Keyspan Twin Serial adapter. If you go to
 http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/imagewriter/ , this page contains the
 necessary software to accomplish this task. 

This begs the question then that if the Imagewriter can be made to function in an OS X 
environment
surely the Laserwriter 300 could also be made to work.

Any feedback would be sincerely appreciated.

Roland :)
