Macs use a different type of conenction for their printers and only some printers will work with them. They dont use parallel connections like PCs. I think my laser printer will work with them, but my inkjet printer wont.. if this is right?

Most macs have USB ports, thusly USB printers are generally used. As for whether or not older macs have a parallel pots or not, I have no idea.
Master of Reality:
so do mac laptops usually have parallel connections for a printer? I was under the impression that they used some special "mac" connector.

(i.e the link you provided.) show a little smile on your troubled face..yes that's much better.. no one here doesn't care about your secret fantasies.. if you like some fisting and stuff it's alright..

There is noone in the world who would say this except an employee of Microsoft!!! Yes, i am onto you, windows XP marketer, you are simply trying to cause bad feeling in the ranks, well your comments will not win any converts here, so kindly move on. I suggest you visit the windowsbbs.com perhaps. Goodbye.

Your comments will not only win any converts, but it just goes to prove the sleeziness that M$ has resorted to. Go away you sploser! You're wasting your time!
Either this guy really is being paid by M$, or he's been brainwashed. I sure hope it's the first one, because I don't want to believe that M$ can have that kind of power over someone. Good call, Calum.

You can obtain a device called PowerPrint which allows you to use parallel devices to print. And our serial port (Mini-Din-8) is not a Mac-only thing, in fact the MiniDin8 format is the industry standard for smaller devices that require serial interfaces (Newton, MagicCap, ec)
Two-way parallel (PC's only had 1-way parallel until a while back) is not.
But, yeah, there are more devices made for the inferior technology because more people have adopted it... the sad lament of the mac owner
