Yep.
I found a

nearby thrift store yesterday. It printed the test page without a
burp... and (I) walked out a happy customer $6 later.
Good hit on that one. Those are reliable and #6 is dirt cheap as
they are still useable. Also it will work with a lot of the non-pC systems
that had centronics
or similar inerfaces with minor connector-wire matching.
Indeed. I just might have to stick this on an LP8E or the parallel
port of a DMF32 (it might require an inverter or two).
It's not a 4ML, so it doesn't have Postscript, but I can't complain
about the price (and I do already have a 4ML I bought new for $1100,
15+ years ago and it's still going strong).
