Providing a TCP/IP stack for the 8 bit Apple II's will help.

I will only buy PostScript laser printers.  Such printers tend to be very
expensive, but are well worth the money (providing that you can use them
long enough to regain the investment).  Best of all, they should work with
any operating system.  (Yet people are reporting problems with OS X?)

The thing which was getting on my nerves was Adobe Acrobat will not print
on my Level 1, nor my Level 2, printer consistently.  Both printers have
genuine Adobe ROMs (you pay a premium for those too), yet Acrobat is the
only software which sends bad commands.
