The LaserWriter IISC was a laser printer manufactured and sold by Apple. The printer was based on the LaserWriter, made to be more economical by forgoing the PostScript interpreter for QuickDraw. To further differentiate the IISC from the rest of the (more expensive) LaserWriter II line, the LocalTalk interface was replaced with a proprietary (and Macintosh-only compatible) SCSI interface.

The Personal LaserWriter SC was similar in these regards to the Personal LaserWriter line.
