Let us not mislead the poor man!

Sorry Ross, you missed the fact that the PainJet printers from BD come with
HP-IB interface, NOT centronics.
To print on these from a PC, some interface is needed; either a box between
PC & printer, or an HP-IB card in the PC.

May your output be clear and quiet ;-)
