Art--

We are using Okidata 321 printers for things like Bills of Lading-- the Oki
is an impact (dot matrix) printer, and the BOLs require multiple copies
(with carbon or NCR).

Our printers are either connected 1 of 2 ways:

Thru a "CLI Box" (Computer Lab International), which is a 'dumb terminal'
-type box, and provides 2 (or more) screen sessions, as well as a printer
session that converts Ethernet to parallel printer. 
Newer versions of the CLI box do more, but the original functions survive.
The printer is defined on the i5 as a Client Access printer; the CLI box
connects, creates the device, and fires it up.

The other way is connecting the printer to a PC, and using a client access
printer session (NOT preferred!).
