I have an old personal laserwriter 320 sitting in the closet with three unopened toner carrtages that I would love to run on my iMac. Is there anyway to convert the laserwriter 320 to a usb? If so can someone please tell me how and where to purchase the supplies to do this. Thanks.

I don't believe you can convert a LocalTalk printer to USB, but you can link
LocalTalk to Ethernet and use the 320 as a networked printer. See this
Wikipedia article.

Googling the equipment talked about will get you information on vendors.
