Hello. I'm in need of information about Orange Micro's Grappler LQ - a device that connects Mac's to HP LaserJet printers. Specifically, will it plug into a parallel only HP clone printer? Please send all comments to the address below. Thank you! Ernest Obusek ern@unix.cis.pittsburgh.edu ern@cisunx.UUCP

It is slow, has memory problems, works poorly with Hypercard (especially if you have no memory) and doesn't work at all with MPW. I finally broke down and bought an Apple compatible printer. If you want to save time and frustration, get something that is designed to work with your Mac. Doug Rosener

I remember there being an article in here a while back about the HP/DeskJet- Grappler LQ combo. Could whoever it was who posted it please relay me your thoughts (I'm thinking of purchasing the combination). Also, does there exist a package for the mac that patches SANE the way Radius does on their accelerators to use the 6888x? I'd appreciate any info. thanks in advance, Brad Koehn UW-Madison "Fly like an Emu!"

There seems to be much going on about connecting Macs to Epsons lately. For those who don't know it: there's also a 24 pin solution: the Grappler LQ For those of you wanting to read about the Grappler LQ , there's an article at sumex-aim.stanford.edu : /info-mac/report/grappler-lq.txt
