Hi.  I'm considering mortgaging my soul to buy a NeXTstation (via
the student discount, of course).  However, there's NO way I'll
be able to afford the NeXT laser printer (as good a deal as it is).
It should be simple to hook a serial printer up to the serial port,
BUT are there drivers available for this?  The Apple ImageWriter II
seems like it would be a good match, but a driver?

Thanks for any info.  I'll summarize and post if there's sufficient
interest.
