I have a question concerning the use of an Imagewriter I as a general
purpose printer.  I recently bought a PC compatible (second computer,
first was a Mac). I would like to be able to use the Imagewriter as a
printer for the (non)IBM, since I don't want to spend the bucks on
another printer.  Any and all information on what signals the PC sends
out and what the Imagewriter expects will be greatly appreciated. By the
way, I am also doing some research in external sources myself. Either
followups or resonses or email are great, and I will post a solution
once I have the printing going.

Thanks in advance
