I have the chance to pick up an aging Apple Laserwriter 16/600 that supports PS2 .. I assume (hope) that this would work trouble-free on FreeBSD. It has parallel port and ethernet connections. (I know you have to make provision for plain-text, but I am more interested in using it to print larger PostScript files). Word on the street is that any PS printer should work on FBSD.
