Does anyone know if it's possible to configure a Macintosh Printer ("Personal LaserWriter") to a Dell (i.e., pentium-based) laptop. I assume I will need a cable adapter, but I believe I also need a special driver or software interface that will facilitate the connection. Any help?
You didn't post which version of Windows was on the laptop...
Open up your printers folder and add a new printer, select Apple as the manufacturer and look to see if the Personal LaserWriter is listed (I think it is in Win95).
If so then you'll need to figure out what type of cable will connect it to the laptop (probably a serial cable).
Good Luck!
