Thanks for this information.
Looking at the Apple sales brochure, it seems that the LaserWriter 4/600
also lacks a serial port. However, the LaserWriter Select 360 does have
one. Therefore, the Select 360 might be a good choice for a 600 dpi
laser printer which is compatible with both Mac OS and NetBSD.
Does anyone know if the Select 360 is compatible with NetBSD?
