	I have a Grappler parallel "thing" that plugs into the GS (and
Mac) serial port and allows the use of a parallel printer.  It even offers
IW2 emulation, or if you have a parallel software driver, it'll handle
that.  I've never used the thing, and I don't have drivers, but I should
think it would work fine with a parallel printer in IW2 emulation (set
with dip switches) sans driver with just about any software --else what
use would the emulation be.
