Anybody know anything about Linotronics?  

If you added a Linotronic to a network of Macs on Ethernet, how would
you go about getting reasonable throughput to the thing?  

The Linotronic has only 3 types of ports: RS-232, AppleTalk, and 
a Centronics parallel port. It seems a shame to be able to zip data
data around on the Ethernet lan at 10Mbps, but then have it slow down
to a crawl across an Appletalk cable from the front-end Mac II to the
Linotronic...

Any ideas?? 

Is there a simple solution to this that I'm overlooking?
