From the project
A Clone of Apple's ImageWriter II/LQ LocalTalk Option card
The ImageScribbler LocalSquawk option is a 1:1 clone of Apple's ImageWriter II/LQ LocalTalk Option card, with a few extra enhancements to make building one easier. It works and behaves in exactly the same way as Apple's original card.
This card can be used in an Apple ImageWriter II or LQ printer to enable LocalTalk networking.
Since this is a clone of an existing device, it's licensed CC0. Do whatever you want with it!
