Most likely, the printer uses the parallel port. Of course, you should be
able to tell by looking at the connector. If you can run your computer under
DOS instead of Windows, you should be able to do without the driver as far
as testing is concerned. Simply hook up the printer, generate some kind of
simple ascii text file, and use the command:

copy Testfile.txt lpt1:
