HI, has anyone out there attached a Lazer writer directly to the printer
port of their MAC Plus? I do not wish to purchase the APPLE Talk hardware
but instead connect directly to the printer.
If a single cable connection is possible will applications packages
write directly to the printer if I make the appropriate CHOOSER settings or do 
I have to create a Postscript file and transfer it to the printer using a
file transfer utility. What are the appropriate CHOOSER setting for such a 
configuration?

     I would like to know the following pin cabling connections so that the
following cables can be constructed. 

      Mini 8                          to         25 pin RS232
      Mini 8                          to          9 pin RS422
