Laser Writer II and OS X

I love my Laser Writer II, even if it is a
relic. I now have an iMac and OS X and
cannot use my Laser Writer except if I
function in the classic environment.
There has got to be a better way.
Suggestions?

The LaserWriter II is a PostScript printer,
and as such, should work fine from within
OS X. Just use the generic LaserWriter
driver.

A agree with the above person who loves their laser writer

But how do I connect from my Laser Writer II to my new iMAC OS X? Keyspan has an adapter but they said it doesn't work.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

My recommendation would be a LocalTalk-to-Ethernet bridge of some sort. You can buy a standalone hardware one on eBay for $20-50, you can buy a new one from Asante or Farallon for about $60, or you can use a Mac that you already have if it meets the requirements of Apple's LocalTalk Bridge software (free from Apple).
