Thanks. I have no plans to sell it. I was simply curious and surprised by what I read here. Fake bazel is something no Lisa owner would want to be surprised by.

Back in 1984, i visited the Flanders Technology exhibition (Belgium) experiencing the Apple Lisa and Radar CH (first version of ArchiCad) very promising.
I am a Archicad user since 1989, version 3

In 2003 I contacted Graphisoft, asking for a copy, but never got an answer.

I can say, with certainty, that it was not made by MacEffects.

Thanks. Does it look like the original one? Is it original in your opinion?

Everything I see in that photo indicates that it is indeed an original bezel. While it really should be inspected in person by any potential buyer, based on the photo that you shared I'm 99.999% certain that it's from 1983 

If that happens to be your bezel, byteshop would be very interested in buying that from you.

Hi, what do you think about this bezel

Hi, what do you think about this bezel

The yellow stripe cables came; I ordered two of them. I tried one cable and was getting a diskette controller error (I/O board, error 57). I tried the other and it worked just fine. So there... It works!

Thank you all for the assistance!

Interestingly, MacEffects is once again selling one of their reproduction bezels on eBay. This time, it's not attached to a Lisa chassis

Notably, this reproduction also features the exact same marring in the border around their reproduction Lisa badge as the other example in their previous auction. I've circled a couple of the telltale marks below. These imperfections must have been present on the original bezel that they used to make the mold, and all copies likely feature them. Drive numbers are also printed in a thicker, bolder font, and so on.

These won't fool anyone who knows what to look for.

Just found out LisaMandelbrot exists. Maybe this should be added to the list!

The original Apple LaserWriter did offer ImageWriter emulation, when connected via it's serial port,  and  later Apple shipped a Postscript based ImageWriter emulator for localtalk connected LaserWriters with GS-OS for the Apple IIgs.

Have you gotten this to work? I've tried a few times with my LaseWriter, and while the emulation loads it does not actually print ImageWriter data.

I don't have a LaserWriter now, but back in the 1980's I did use the LaserWriter emulation mode and it worked, but I realize it was the built-in Diablo 630 emulation and not a ImageWriter emulation. 

AFAIK, the PS ImageWriter download that was included with GSOS only worked over LocalTalk, and would not be much help for LOS..
