If you want something that works on both, then the HP Deskjet line
(excluding the rarer 'Windoze Only' printers from them) works great
for that. You'll need a parallel card and drivers for the GS, but once
you have that, things'll work great. The independence drivers *should*
work over parallel, but as noted in section 4.6 of the csa2 FAQ at
http://www.visi.com/~nathan/a2/faq/csa2.html, the Harmonie drivers
taken over by Joe Kohn/Shareware Solutions II work well with that.
