IMAGEN has never produced an AppleTalk interface in their printers. We
have supported Ethernet(TCP/IP, XNS), parallel, and serial but never
AppleTalk. As far as our parent company, QMS, they do support AppleTalk
but not on any IMAGEN based products.

If there are support problems, such as the LaserPrep file, you should
contact IMAGEN Applications Support at (408) 986-9400. I know that we
have solutions to this problem (I just don't have them handy at this time).
