The LW IIsc is not a PostScript printer, and furthermore, I don't think
NetBSD knows how to talk to SCSI printers. As for the ADB port, I believe
that the other members of the LaserWriter II family have this as well, It
was supposed to accommodate printer peripherals (like auto-collaters or
something of that nature), but I don't think any such peripherals were ever
produced.
