Can I use an Apple Laserwriter 4/600 PS?

[lakhdip]

I have been given an unwanted Apple Laserwriter 4/600 PS. Can I use this with either my PC or my 15" FW800 PBook?

It has a round connector similar to a PS/2 plug, but i think it's different.

Anyone know how to use this or if i can use this?

Additionally, if anyone could give me a rough age of it, it would be helpful.. it looks quite clean! :)

Thanks in advance

Thanks in advance You can read all about the Laserwriter 4/600 PS at this web site (http://apple-museum.net/index.php?id=tam&page=printer&subpage=laser_lw_4600&skin=pr). In order to use it with MacOS X 10.x, you need a LocalTalk to Ethernet bridge. You will have to connect via AppleTalk (over Ethernet).
