   Hi, I was wondering if anyone out there has hacked together a printer driver
for the Epson LX-80 out there. I'm getting a NeXTstation, and, being a 
student, can't afford the Laser printer. I have, however, an Epson LX-80
printer that I use currently. The cable (centronics DB-25 to DB-9) shouldn't
be a problem (a straight hardware hack) but I've no experiance at all with 
printer drivers. Has anybody connected their dot-matrix printer to a NeXT?
Thanks!
