With the IIe card, you should be able to use any printer supported by the
software you are using (for example, AppleWorks). I have not actually
tried it, but I would expect it to work.
There is a daisy wheel driver for the mac (public domain, I think). Most
user group libraries should have it (I do). Whether it works with 7.1 or
not, I do not know. But it might be worth a try.
