TashTalk USB

09:00:07:FF:FF:FF is the default broadcast address for EtherTalk Phase 2 and it could change depending on zone. Only Phase 1 used FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. Network "0" should only appear on broadcast packets (ie: 0.255), otherwise its not valid. The ImageWriter LocalTalk card has a few NBP bugs too, which makes things fun.

Hard-coding a destination network to '0' in the lookup packet looks to be a fix. Netatalk shows up in the results now. It is too early to make noise with the ImageWriter so I'll test that later. Now to consider how to handle such workarounds...

The ImageWriter shows up now too. I should add that this is over ethernet on windows - localtalk still doesn't show everything.

Printing isn't working yet either, it hangs querying printer status.
