Re: Materials for Printing Word Rolls
By Robbie Rhodes

Spencer Chase said that Eric Bernhoft prefers to use a Macintosh. So do I. :)

Small in-line adapters are available which enable a Mac to connect to many other printers, especially those using "Centronix" cables and electrical protocol. The other element needed is a system (software) device driver which allows the application program to send the control sequences to the printer.

On the other hand, does Eric need the speed of a daisy-wheel printer? Could he use the wide-carriage dot-matrix Apple Imagewriter printer? I think he would like its flexibility, and it would be completely compatible with his text processing programs. The standard Mac printer drivers permit printing text with no page breaks, too.
