I have a Tandy dot matrix printer DMP134,want to add to
my Compaq Presario 6000 using a cable marked " IEEE
Printer Cable." Can't get printer to work. HELP!!
 
Go to Start Printers and Faxes Add a Printer (upper left window)
Local printer attached to this machine Uncheck Automatically detect and
install my Plug and Play Printer. Follow the on-screen prompts. LPT1 is
probably the correct port On the left side select IBM On the right,
select IBM ProPrinter II.

I believe this printer will operate correctly with this driver without any
need to change any settings on the printer, itself. However, if the printer
does not print properly with this driver, check the printer's documentation
for the location of any possible DIP or other switches or front panel
settings to change the printer's mode to IBM.

Let us know.
