View, CA Lines: 23 Forgive me if this topic has been discussed here before -- I'm a newcomer to comp.sys.mac, and am still considering purchasing a Mac. I currently own two printers: a Brother M-1509 Epson-compatible matrix printer with both serial and parallel interfaces, and an Okidata Laserline 6 HP LJ-II-compatible laser printer with 512K memory. If I purchase a Mac SE, will I be able to utilize either/both of these printers? I plan to use Word, Excel, and some database program. I am under the impression that some form of printer driver software will be required (similar, I believe to a DOS TSR program). Is this correct? What is the name of the program(s)? Where can I find the program(s)? Any help is greatly appreciated! =============================================================================== Walt Novinger | ...!sun!plx!walt | Plexus Computers, Inc. | ...!sun!plx!sixwbn!walt | Joke 'em if they can't 3833 N.
