I am trying to hook up an Imagewriter II (leftover from my
Mac days) to my NextStation Color running 3.0.  I noticed
that under /NextLibrary/PrinterTypes/English.lproj there
are two dot-matrix printers listed -- an IBM ProPrinter and
an Epson 510.  Also, somwhere under /usr/lib/NextPrinter
(and some subdir under this) this are two corresponding files
with a .pmdb extension.  Does anybody have any docs or
knowledge of this file format?

Has anybody already hooked up an Imagewriter II to a Next?

Thanks in advance!
