I have a Mac II and want to use an OKIDATA printer instead
of an Imagewriter.  The Okidata has a parallel port, so I need
hardware for a serial to parallel converter.  I also need
software to drive the Okidata.  I have heard of MACENHANCER,
but there was some indication this was not well supported.
I have also heard of Grappler, but don't know if it will do the
job.  I'll be interested in any information that would be useful
to help me decide if I can use my Okidata and save the price
of an Imagewriter.

Thanks in advance!
