If the ImageWriter has a simple serial port, then I don't think there is
any way to share it on the network. If however it has a localtalk port
then you might be able to share it using LocalTalk Bridge. This would make
it visible on the network. However I don't think you could print to the
ImageWriter from a unix system since AFAIK there are no QuickDraw filters
available.
