Dumb Question...
Posted by: Amelia on 2008-06-26 00:48:16
I have an Apple //e and a Mac Plus. I will be getting a Mac Classic II in the near future.

I would like to get a printer for these. I know nothing about the printers associated with these machines. Can I get one printer for all of these machines? Or do I have to get a different printer for each one?

Printer model names and numbers would be appreciated.

Thanks [😀] ]'>

An ImageWriter or ImageWriter II would do the job.

ImageWriter

ImageWriter II

You will probably need a different cable to connect either one to the IIe than the Macs though, as I'm assuming you're using a Super Serial card, which has a female DB-25 connector, rather than the Mac MiniDIN-8.

Hope this helps 🙂

Super Serial card
Which goes in the IIe, because it doesn't have a factory serial port. Both Macs will have the same, 8 pin DIN, serial port, and use the same cable and printer. It's only the IIe that's the odd one out.
