Yep. Easy. Several ways, in fact.
Sounds like the LW 360 is hooked up via a LocalTalk connector since you
say you're running a printer bridge software(I presume Apple's
LaserWriter Bridge or LocalTalk Bridge) so that your Ethernet computers
can print to the LW 360 LocalTalk printer like the 360. Right?
If so, just hook your Newtons into the LocalTalk daisy chain too, thru
their serial port/dongle
OR get an Ethernet card for your Newton MP2k and hook it up to the
AppleTalk net that way. Then just print using the built in Laserwriter
drivers in the Newton.
