I'm not real familiar with this route -- what would this entail? Does this provide me an AppleTalked ImageWriter? I thought the IW needed an internal card before it could do that (which also provided an ethernet port). ??

I don't think the IW networking card provides ethernet, just localtalk.

You would need the AT networking card for the IW, and some sort of localtalk-ethernet bridge. Someone was selling an Asante unit on the swaplist just today for $25.

"Asante Micro AsantePrint for connecting your LocalTalk
printer to an Ethernet Network. Has LocalTalk
connector on one side and choice of three Ethernet
Connectors: RJ-45, Coax, and AUI. Includes power
supply."

 This was from 'Dennis in Buffalo': <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I use a similar box from Dayna to connect my laserjet 4M which only has a localtalk connector to my home network. Works like a charm.
