Does anyone know if it is possible to drive Apple Laserwriter printers
from a parallel or serial port on a PC and if so what the cable
connections should be? (PC's have 25 or 9 pin D type connectors
and Macs have 8 pin PS/2 connectors)

Windows95 has printer drivers for the AppleMac Laserwriter series
of printers so it looks as if someone's done it!

Thanks in advance.
