Lines: 11 I'm posting my reply since others may be interested. I'm using a Panasonic 1091 printer with my Atari 520ST and am quite happy with it. Both text and graphics modes seem to work. [That is, the print-screen function does generate an image of the screen on the printer]. A very minor change in the STWriter configuration was required, something like ESC-H => ESC-T, to turn of superscript or subscript mode. Other than that, most things seem to work fine. Also, an IBM-PC printer cable can be used to attach a parallel printer to the ST. That's easier than trying to figure out what works from the pinouts.
