[NTLK] LocalTalk Printing

[Kevin LaCombe]

This is my second 6MP after the first one would no longer feed paper reliably.  I got the second one last year for $35 shipped with a brand new HP brand toner.  
I replaced the paper feed wheel on this one and it works great.  Something so cool about beam printing from a newt!
