I got rid of my stock of LW II's just a couple of months ago; I didn't
want to sink the time into them to fix their paper feeding issues (it
was more than the roller & separation pad, as I tried replacing those)
and nobody else wanted them. So, they went to the e-cycler. From that
pile, I had a IIf via PhoneNET to an Ethernet bridge; any Mac up
through 10.5 (last version to support AppleTalk) could use it
directly, and I had a 10.5 machine that shared it so that it was
accessible from 10.6 and newer, and Windows via Bonjour.
