I have some questions on this subject as well.  My dad has a parallel
Epson-1500.  What is the best way to get it hooked up to the mac?
Would it be advantages to convert the epson into a serial device?  I
know that converting the epson to serial is trivial, it just takes a
couple of extra dollars.

Thanks in advance.
