Thanks for the help Daniel and Kathi

After checking both posts, I spent some time looking at and for a 
suitable card.  Only one major problem - the 49ty parallel.

Tha card Kathi mentioned is a good fit but it isn't available from Dlink 
in Canada, and the nearly identical one available in Canada (no 
trailing+) does not advertise Apple OS compatibility.  So I've sent out 
an inquiry to a local shop that handles Dlink to see if they can source 
me one.

I checked the others, and wasn't able to find another that showed Mac 
compatibility including the offerings from Netgear and  Intel. I 
understand that the Intel might work without drivers but will opt for 
the Dlink if I can find it as there are drivers for both OS9 and OSX up 
to 2.

Else I'll go to a local apple dealer and get one from them if they are 
able to source one.

Meanwhile, I'll look at replacing the floppy or zip to be able to 
transfer print files without wasting a cd.

Thanks again.  You have been a great help

Glen
