I would love to buy an old daisy wheel or print ball impact printer that works using simple LPT over a parallel cable. I’ve not found a reliable source and I’m in Iceland so it’s expensive to play roulette on eBay.

Man, the SE, ImageWriter, and LaserWriter really were peak industrial design. Ain't nobody gonna convince me otherwise.
