Hello Rodney,
AppleTalk is really quite simple. Indeed, you should be able to test it with
your IIgs, LC575 and the printer cable from your IWII.
First, ensure that your LC575 has the file sharing software installed: go to
the "Sharing Setup" control panel, and a window with three sections ("Network
Identity", "File Sharing", and "Program Linking") should appear. If you can
not find the control panel, or the "File Sharing" section is missing, install
it! Personal file sharing is included with system 7 and later. Also make
sure AppleTalk is enabled (see the bottom right hand corner of the "Chooser"),
and it is connected to the printer port (in either the "Network" or
"AppleTalk" control panel, depending on your version of the system software).
