I own 3 of these printers, one with the network option, and I need to install these discs to make them work.
Any help, images, download locations welcome.
Have Paypal and Visa, whatever you want, or trade for.

@mkinn as far as I recall it was pretty much in the system installer (as 7 went, not sure of earlier sorry) but even then apple also had it as a service download too tho re https://web.archive.org/web/20100527004218/http://support.apple.com/kb/TA48312?viewlocale=en_US

Found the Imagewriter II/LQ Appletalk networking disc there, but not the 3 discs which came with the printer there.
Thank you VERY MUCH for that one! Were any of these discs included on the Developer series CD's?

The Legacy Support CD would be the most likely disc with ImageWriter drivers on it. System 7 includes the latest ImageWriter LQ and LQ AT drivers. It's all you need to print from the OS. If anything, the original disks likely included bitmapped fonts, something made obsolete by TrueType scaled fonts in System 7.
