No reference to "compatibility issues" with PostScript-based Apple printers in comparison to Quickdraw based printers, in fact PostScript based LaserWriters were more compatible with apps of the time

The '''LaserWriter IISC''' was a laser printer manufactured and sold by [[Apple Inc.|Apple]]. The printer formed the low end of the new LaserWriter II series, based on the [[Canon Inc.]] LBP-SX engine also used in the HP [[LaserJet II]]. Costs were cut by forgoing the PostScript interpreter for QuickDraw, and the network connection for a single-PC connection via [[SCSI]], hence "SC." This allowed a slower microprocessor and less memory to be used, and eliminated the network interface. The Personal LaserWriter SC was similar in these regards to the later Personal LaserWriter line.
