I use an ethernet connection to a linux pc to print to a LaserJet 4 through
GhostScript. As far as the Newton is concerned, it is printing to a
PostScript printer.

See:

Unfortunately, the site is quite often unreachable, but the pages are
cached at Google.

You still need the interconnect cable to get the network drivers to your
Newton however.
