No, all you have to do is do what The Namer does - download the
appropriate code to the LaserWriter. You can change the name and the
"type" of the printer this way. Changing the type is handy if you picked
up the LaserWriter Driver hack which lets you change a LaserWriter's
type so that only people with the modified driver can see and print to
it.
