Mon, 18 Dec 2006 20:51:57 GMT
Having just had my printer die on me, and finding that printers with
good-ol' parallel interfaces seem almost to have vanished (everyone uses
USB, apparently) I was wondering what my options were (I have an Ultra 2,
with SCSI, SBUS, parallel output, but of course no USB).
One possibility would be to install a ...

might be easier t ...

images in the galleries at "http://www.sunshack.org/data/sunpix.html" into the
new image galleries at "http://www.sunshack.org/gallery2". That's the easy

Solaris 9... I've posted the following detail to the SunShack online forums
at "http://www.sunshack.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=51" but I'll post it here
as well:
Ages ago I tried to upgrade an Ultra 60 to a later release ...
