} There are currently two major alternatives on the market for those 
} people interested in hooking up an HP Deskjet printer to a Macintosh; 
} the Orange Micro "Grappler LS" or the DataPak Software "Printer 
} Interface III" package.
...
} For comparison, the Grappler comes with a small in-line box that
} is hooked up to the printer port of the Mac as well as a device
} driver of their own.  I assume that the box does a serial ->
} parallel conversion (the DeskJet can take serial or parallel input,
} but the Mac can only generate serial, I believe) 

That actually sounds like the "Grappler LQ".  Grappler LS is software
ONLY (well, OK, it DOES come with a Mac mini-DIN to DB-25 cable :)),
and uses a modified ImageWriter LQ driver together with workalike fonts
for Helvetica and Times from BitStream.
