I have one connected and working fine. The driver comes from;

	Softstyle
	7192 Kalanianole Highway, Suite 205
	Honolulu, Hawaii 96825
	1-808-396-6368

	"LaserStart"

It works with Laserjet + and Series II HP Laserjet printers.  The only 
application that I have found it won't work with is HyperCard.  Seems thet
HyperCard uses internal references to the Laserwriter and Imagewriter
printers, ignoring the DA installed one.

Softstyle also makes drivers for other printers

	BlueStart - IMB printers
	MatrixStart  - for Epson and others

I ordered mine from a local computer store (Vista in NJ).

My LaserJet is installed using the parallel port on the printer via
a serial-to-parallel converter box. I do this to more easily share
the printer with a PC using a simple switch box instead of having
to go through the menu selection on the LaserJet.
