        Dear Jim:

        The LaserWriter Pro 810 is actually a DataProducts LZR 1560, private
labelled for Apple. [I have two customers with 3 of these beasts... In
fact, one customer has an LZR 1560 and an LWPro 810 sitting side-by-side!]

        In any case, beware the ethernet port on this printer: According to an
Apple TIL, they indicate that the ethernet implementation is very poor,
with an ethernet - to - parallel converter; and that the LocalTalk port is
actually *faster* than the ethernet port.

        Check out DataProducts site for NT4 drivers for the LZR 1560.

        I hope this helps!
        Dan
