Please forgive me for asking this (I expect a flame or two)...but I work 
mostly with Novell and the "I" word (we all have to eat).

I have a Panasonic KX-P1080i parallel printer that I would like (some how)
to hook to a Mac II. Is there a serial to parallel interface out there for
those of us who would like to use what we have laying around? Or is there
a way to hook it up directly? 

The big question is if there is a way, what about getting it to show up in
chooser? (never have I seen an icon for a Panasonic printer).

Thanks for the help.
