Assuming you haven't got any other serial devices (like a modem) try this:

Connect the Epson to the modem port. (It will work fine as a serial device
just plug it in and select the modem port in the Epson driver in the
Chooser)
Connect the Laserwriter to the printer port and turn Appletalk networking
on.

Should work fine but let me know if you're still having problems.
