[MACEP] Help connecting USB Printer under 10.2 plus classic

[radams at lane.k12.or.us]

In OS-9, go to the apple menu, chooser, click on the icon of the printer
driver for that printer, and you're done.  If it's the first time, click on
the SETUP and let it generate a desktop printer.  OS-9 doesn't have a whole
list of printers already supplied the way OS-X does.  You have to download the
latest driver from the company's website and install it.  With HP printers,
it's the same installer but you do it when in 9 and then again when in OS-X
(for the first time you use that printer).
