Same with me.  I have a A/B/C/D switch which allows me to work with both
my inkjet printer and IW.  Works great.  Just flick the switch then go
into the chooser (or desktop printer if GX) and switch to imagewriter then
your set to go.  Its much easier than a SCSI setup (IMO).  I got my switch
through MacWarehouse for 29.95
