I use an Epson EPL-6000 emulating a LaserJet on my Mac IIsi.  You need
a mac plus to immagewriter I cable, and a software driver.  I use MacPrint
(version 1.2 or above) for speed, and Freedom Of The Press Light when I
want to play with PostScript.

Both are somewhat slow, but both do work.  You will need at least 1 meg
of memory in your printer to print a full screen of graphics.
