I have Epson printers and was wondering if we could use them on the NeXT stations?? I'd rather not have to upgrade to a lazer or PS printer if we can use the Epsons. Thank you all. Dean Jansa

If they only have parallel interfaces, you will need more hardware; if they have serial interfaces, just an appropriate cable. If you follow the instructions in Chapter 13 of N&SA you can set them up as text printers (for lpr). You will *not* be able to print from NextStep applications without additional software (not [yet] generally available). -=EPS=-
