I have read numerous posts that have posed and answered this question
before, but I have never tried to do it myself. As best as I can recall, an
Apple ImageWriter is essentially an Itoh printer, and can work with an
IBM-compatible PC running Windows 3.x or later (since the operating
environment includes a standard library of printer drivers). The hard part
is getting an interface cable with the correct connectors and pinouts
(especially for the ImageWriter II, which requires that Mac-style mini
8-DIN serial connector), plus I cannot remember *which* Itoh driver is the
right one. Can anyone else in the forum fill in the missing details for me?

Best of luck to you, Mark.


Peace, Love, and Apple II Forever!
