Hi- I'm relatively new to the Mac world and thus am allowed my one
ignorant question, right?

I have had a Mac graciously bestowed on me by the home office but
without any output device.  I do, however, have a DEC LA75, which
will also emulate an IBM Proprinter.

Is there any way, either through public software, commercial software,
or writing-my-own sofwtare, that I can drive that printer with any
effectiveness from the Mac?  I'm willing to settle for less-than-
perfection quality if I can at least get some output.

Any and all suggestions would be appreciated; please respond to me and
I will summarize to the net.
Thanks,

Denis Haskin
