I'm trying to replace a printer on a relative's Apple 2e system. It
was an Apollo inkjet printer - a less expensive version of an HP
Deskjet 450(?).
All I need is a character mode printer that works with a parallel card
in slot 1 under Apple DOS. I really would prefer an injket to a dot
matrix or laser printer.
All of the printers I see today are Win or Mac printers. Printing
ANYTHING on them requires a host driver.
I do have a Deskjet 500 on my Apple 2e, but that's staying where it
is. One candidate is a Deskjet 310, but that requires a snap-on multi-
sheet feeder - which I do have. [Assembling it and teaching someone
ELSE how to use it - no fun.]
