I think I can help.!
My son Joel is using an Emate (Newton laptop) brillliant in
school.However to print it needs to be apple compatable or you can buy a
print pack that enables print to any printer with software to a parallel
printer as you usually would.
But many HP deskjets are mac compatible. My HP850C is so is Desk jet 340
Laser jet 5mp Personal laser writer many epson are compatible. Look for
the little round 9 pin hole next to the parallel printer input and that
tells the tale.
