Printer driver wanted

I recently bought a Mac SE, and have a perfectly good, older dot-matrix
printer (IDS Microprism Model 480) that I would like to use, instead of
having to buy an Imagewriter.  It has a serial and parallel port, supports
text or graphics modes, and prints 84x84 dpi.  I contacted the factory,
but they don't support it because it's older (bought in 1982).  

Does anybody out there have such a driver?  Or can one be made relatively
inexpensively?  Or is this not such a hot idea...?

Please reply directly to me - I don't read comp.sys.mac on any regular
basis.  Thanks in advance!
