I have a ROM 01 IIgs, and I believe that the procedure is the same on the 
Woz IIgs as well.  From the control panel, simply select the Slots menu 
and change Slot 7 from "Your Card" to "Built-in AppleTalk".  A message 
will appear stating that you cannot use a printer, modem, and AppleTalk at 
the same time.  This is because AppleTalk must be connected to one of 
either your Printer or Modem ports.  Just change either Slot 1 or 2 to 
"Your Card" and AppleTalk will activate.
 
Remember, this is for the ROM 01 GS.  I am not positive that this works on 
the Woz machine...
 
Hope this helps...
