I'm trying to set up some old pcs and components as 3 work stations for a
struggling church group of young people. What their leader is trying to is
to teach them some basics and word processing skills. Each work station
will have a pc, a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and printer.

I found an old printer in my closet. It's a Juki daisy wheel. It still
looks new, and used to do a great job for me years ago (yes, it's a bit of a
chunkety chunkety chunkety thing, though).

Anway, the pcs are going to be old Win 98 beaters. Question being how do I
install the Juki printer on one of them if it doesn't have that specific
install. I seem to vaguely remember something about a generic emulation.
But, need refreshed details of what I can go to in the Windows printer
drivers that might mimic the old Juki.

It looks like the Juki used Diablo drivers.

they have a generic text driver there, that may not work for your environment
but it is worth a try.

Thanks lots. I bet that's just what I'm looking for. I figured there was
some other more common driver that would work.
