- If its a standard 8-pin serial cable on both ends (like the imagewriter cable),
- then it should work just fine. In fact, at my school in the computer lab, I've
- disconnected the Laser writer's appletalk connector and used it to gain access
- to the network with my PB145. (I of course repalced it, hopefully before
- anyone tried to print :-).
