Many thanx to all still replying, and to all that have replied. The two
major highlights are as follows:

From Dave Platt (dplatt@ames.arpa):
	Advises to either get an Appletalk interface: which takes up a lot
	of bandwidth on Appletalk networks, and quite possibly does not 
	work on all network configurations (ie PhoneNet/EtherNet, etc mixes)
	Also, there is the possibility that the version it runs is not the
	same as most Appletalk Imagewriter II's, so some incompatabilities
	may exist.

Along with Dave Platt, Rick (rrkasegu@athena.mit.edu) advises:
	Shiva Netserial. Both Mr. Platt and Rick advise to do it this way
	which uses its own chooser interface, and allows the Imagwriter I
	to be used as it was designed, as a serial printer. Also allows
	for more flexibility with dial up, modems, etc....


			Many thanx to all, confirms my suspicions..Ace
