And I don't know about you, but the "little picture of a printer" on, let's say, the Print button in MS Word, looks absolutely nothing like any of the printers I have here. Now *I* know that it looks like a big old impact printer, with output coming from the top, but the vast majority of the general public these days will never have seen such a beast! A quick rundown of parallel printer ports here shows: - a symbol very like the MS word one. - the word "Parallel" - a rectangle with a knob on the side with an overlayed square with equal horizontal lines on it. - a rectangle with an overlayed square with different length lines - similar but looks more like paper falling out of a slot - a rectangle with a corner cut off above a horizontal line I couldn't find two that were exactly the same! And you think that makes it easier? I've come across connectors on machines in the past with cryptic symbols on them that I haven't a clue what they mean, so have no idea what the connector is for! At least with "IMPRIMATEUR" I can look it up in a dictionary, or type it into google! No wonder mass-market PCs are produced with *colour coded* connectors, and mass-market peripherals are issued with matching coloured plugs... Hey, we ruled half the world at one point...
