Is there a way to have an IWII connect via Mac serial-to-USB converter for use on a modern machine?

Yeah, and here is a driver:

Here is a video of someone getting an IW II to print from an iPad!

EDIT: Incidentally, the type of paper the IWII uses natively is still available somewhat inexpensively, which is good if one has any need for such things (and besides, what good are your nice, new color ribbons without decent paper?!)

Yes.  Also, tractor-feed labels are available on Amazon and printing them on an IW II is incredibly cheap.  It costs about 1/5th what it costs to use a Dymo label maker.
