BTW: The reason I bought this printer when my old printer died was because this was the only printer at Staples that had a parallel interface. My Print server requires a parallel interface. I guess one soon day they will quit making printers with parallel ports.

Am using c-88 in combination with Turboprint driver. Prints documents & photos perfectly, but printer toolbox utilities only partially functional. The most important ones work OK.
Biggest annoyance is that printer will occasionally pull 2 sheets of paper thru instead of just one for a single page. This means that although the document prints well and completely, I must sort out the extra (blank) page and recycle it into the feed tray.
I would deduct another point for these minor problems, except that I fought with 3 HP printers over a period of 5 years, and several operating systems, and running this Epson/Turboprint combination is like heaven compared to that.
