I would expect that the majority of them work in Win98, so long as you can
get a driver for it - check the manufacturers website before you buy the
device and if they have a Win98 driver, then there shouldn't be a problem.

stopped using Win98), but driverguide.com has loads of drivers.

The point of posting that article, is to highlight that Microsoft prevents
printer companies from offering new printers with Win98 support. Yes,
Avelino could try to find an old driver for an old printer (and he
posted such a question recently), but in terms of shopping for
brand new products with Win98 support, it looks like Microsoft
has prevented it. Maybe there is some way to host the printer
on another computer ? I'm not a printer guy, so don't know
what options there are for getting around this problem.
