Model 12 <-> Okidata 600e

If he's done the obvious, i.e. hooking the Oki 600e to a serial port he's going
to have troubles.

If he has the parallel port spec, it MIGHT work, provided the RS model drives
all the signals as the PC does, which I'd guess it doesn't.

I've never even seen a model 12, so I don't know how accessible the driver is in
the software.
