If it's a PostScript printer and you're able to use the LaserWriter chooser
extension, you should be able to print to it from your Newton. You mention a
LocalTalk bridge. Does this mean that this printer has LocalTalk port only?
If so, you need the LocalTalk bridge. If you can see the printer from your
Mac in the Chooser, then you should be able to see it too from the printing
chooser on your Newton. Make sure you choose "Other network printer...".
