Parralel port printer to laptop?
I rebuilt an old Epsom 440 printer which runs v. economically on bottle ink from my old desktop machine. Can it be run from a modern laptop which doesn't have a parallel port connection?

Thanks for that, I was able to download the driver for the 440 but your comment Scotsman gives me some thinking to do. If it costs £25 I might as well go for a USB printer. Like being in control of the machine and as you know the older ones let you do this and not be rooked for high cost cartridges.
