Well, I have 2 IIGS computers here, both on an AppleTalk network
connected to two other IIGS computers (a third could be hooked
in if necessary :-) and an ImageWriter II, LaserWriter IINT, and
finally a Mac LC which is running Personal AppleShare under
System 7.0.  It's a pretty nice setup.

As for the "needed software" to hook things up - well it comes
on the System.Disk and System.Tools disks.  Printing to either
the LaserWriter or the ImageWriter is a snap.
