I don't think the Mac supports encoding/decoding TCP/IP packets via
localtalk. From what I understand Ethertalk (what mac compatible
printers talk on ethernet) is essentially localtalk wrapped with an
ethernet packet. :-/ TCP/ip is a different protocol on the same
computer and that is only supported through PPP(remote access) and ethernet.
