Re: serial printer with Lombard
Does the Apple 4/600 laserwriter have appletalk? If it does you can use a localtalk to ethernet bridge like the asanteprint.

Re: serial printer with Lombard
Yep, the 4/600 is an Appletalk printer. Use one every day. It connects to one of the old Farallon minihubs with the Localtalk bridge, then ethernets to my main hub. Incidentally, one of the lines from my main hub goes to an Airport base station so my Airport laptops, (two of them, an ibook and a Wallstreet with a Cisco 350 wireless card) print right to this printer. As does my flat screen iMac and two 2300 Duos with Newer Ethernet docks which are wired to the hub. All print just fine. No Problems.

Oops. Didn't get that far. I'm guessing it's because they're postscript printers. Sorry. You may consider getting a LocalTalk to ethernet bridge. I have a client who has their old LaserWriter NT connected to the network with an Asante brand. You could connect it directly to your Lombard or a network hub if you have one. I would imagine a direct connection would require a crossover cable.

Re: serial printer with Lombard
Is there any way to use a serial printer (Apple 4/600 laserwriter) with a G3 Lombard PB? Willi Doesn't the Lombard have a serial port? -- Mike Amato Nope. The Wallstreet had serial, ADB and SCSI. The Lombard had USB and SCSI. The Pismo had USB and FireWire. You'll have to get a USB-Serial adapter, from a company like Belkin or Keyspan. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
