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.
