Get a LocalTalk card for the ImageWriter (less than $100 from Sequential. 
Probably available from others too.  Or pick up a used one.)

Get a bunch of PhoneNet connectors (These are really common now that many 
Mac users are going EtherNet.  Should be $5-10 each on the net.)

Set up a small AppleTalk network with the GS's and IW's.
