APS Technologies ( I don't work for them) makes a cool little A/B switch for printers. I use one on my machine to hook in both an in=
k jet color and a hi res lazer. One is apple talk the other not. If you start with appletalk enabled and switch to the non-appletalk=
 printer, turning off appletalk, you can go back without having to re-start to activate apple talk
