[comp.sys.mac.hardware] AppleTalk Deskwriter/GV Teleport/Comm Toolbox

Can the HP Deskwriter be AppleTalk-connected to a single Mac
without the LocalTalk connector kit?  I am trying to free up a
serial port after installing the Teleport ADB modem, and apparently
the only clean way of doing this (other than the Comm ToolBox) is 
to let the Teleport "share" a virtual printer port with an AppleTalk
printer.   Is it better to do this using the CTB?

Details:  Teleport 1.06, White Knight 11.12, System 7.0 ... I'll summarize
with the lowdown on ADB modems and 7.0 if I get this working properly.

Thanks,  Bill (johnston@minnie.me.udel.edu)
