I'm looking around for a printer driver for my HP ThinkJet. I found
GDT SoftWorks which will sell me a driver for $99 which is fine, but
they say it won't work with a parallel printer without a serial-to-
parallel software converter. With this included, it comes to $189.
This is somewhat absurd, since I could probably get a whole new
printer for this. Any ideas? Is there such a thing as serial->parallel
PD software?
