NTLK printing via local talk bridge ?? ethernet cards

Another question, if anyone has time.
I have an Ethernet set up with a PowerBook G3 and a PowerMac - using an old
LaserWriter via a local talk bridge on the PowerMac (this is because it is
neither a network or USB printer). Is there a way I can attach my Newton to
this network with a 'live' connection so that I can print - among other
things. I don't want to have to get an Ethernet card for the Newton unless
anyone has got a cheap one for sale!!

Also, I am using a Keyspan serial to USB adaptor to attach the Newt to the
PBG3 and the PB crashed every time it goes to sleep if the Keyspan is left
plugged in. Do other people have this problem?
