[net.micro.apple] Apple Laserwriter & VAXEN & AppleTalk ?

dolf@uva.UUCP (Dolf Starreveld) (06/28/85)

From what I read on the net, I think there are some sites that are using
the Apple Laserwriter from their Unix machines, as well as via the
AppleTalk network.
What I would like to know is:

1) Am I correct in this?
2) How have you connected the Laserwriter to both AppleTalk and Unix (VAX?)
3) Do you share the Laserwriter between the two?
4) Is it true that while talking to the Laserwriter via the RS232 port you
   can only use one built in font?
5) Does somebody market an interface that connects a VAX (Unix or VMS) to
   AppleTalk, i.e. some form of H/S-DLC protocol card?
6) Anybody have specific information on the above for VAXEN running VMS?

In case of enough replies I will summarize to the net.
