I've never had a problem with that...they usually print the info on the
back. My problem is the the early DMP dot matrix series (before 134, I
think) will not respond to many PC parallel ports. I've heard that Radio
Schlock has a cable to fix that, but they said no.

Anyway, these early DMP's respond to most modern motherboards. Don't know
why.
