Yes you can. I do it with a 4/600, which is the same animal, basically. You can print to any Appletalk-networked printer up to X.4.9 at least, and so presumably to X.4.10; so long as you have a bridge setup, you can do it.
You can use a localtalk-ethernet bridge (c. $50?), or a dedicated machine set up to handle the networking thus:
1. System 7.1, preferably 68k - a quadra will do nicely. On this one machine you need:
2. Localtalk and ethernet ports.
3. Apple Internet Router (or laserwriter bridge if you want something more low-end);
4. Appleshare Print Server (AS4 works nicely, but so will AS3 is you want to use a 68030 machine).
Your modern machines will see the print server on ethernet; your print server/ router will see the LW320.
Yes, there is a use for an old machine here!
Another alternative is to set up an A/UX machine as an Appleshare Pro print server. I THINK that it will network the localtalk printer all by itself, but you'd need to try and see. As I recall, this facility is built into Appleshare Pro, which runs only on A/UX.
