Apple IIGS: How To Print from BASIC or Pascal over AppleTalk



Using an Apple IIGS, how do I print from Applesoft BASIC or Pascal to an
AppleTalk ImageWriter or to a LaserWriter running ImageWriter emulation?

It is similar to printing through a serial connection, except that Chooser
II has to be on the boot disk the first time and a printer must be chosen.

1) Boot from disk with chooser II

2) Run Chooser and select Printer.

3) To print from BASIC, use PR#1 on a new 1MB Apple IIGS; use PR#7 on an
older Apple IIGS.
