Powerprint USB-Parallel

Summary: Powerprint 5.0 w. Laserjet 1100se
Review: When I bought my Mac G3 (OS 8.6), I was frustrated by the lack of Mac-dedicated printers in the mid-price range. I eventually settled on the Laserjet 1100se because of my previous good fortune with HP. I had heard about the Powerprint USB to parallel converter that worked with the HP. I have had good luck with Powerprint after printing a couple of thousand pages with it. The speed is adequate for home office use. With a few exceptions, the printer has the same functionality as it would have with a Windows system. Some of the special characters will not print in some font sets--bullets for example. And the "economode" in printing does not work. This is only a minor issue. The kit comes with cable, special mini-centronics adapter, and software.
