If this printer has a parallel port only, then you'll need a special cable
that costs approx $240 to make this work. This cable will convert the
serial data coming out of the printer port of your Mac into the parallel
data that the printer needs.

Not sure of this cable's supplier, but I believe you'd probably be able to
get one from MacWarehouse or somewhere similar.
