RE: LUCI: Computerfest news




Mark, 

If I recall correctly, you were asking a while back about Jazz and Zip
drives connecting via the parallel port, getting them to configure and
mount properly.  I ran into a utility that could be useful and an e-mail
'source of support'.  I'm posting as a non-pointer, the email address
and internet address.  Let me know if this is useful and if so, what
results you got since I plan to use a parallel Zip soon in the future:

	Internet: www.scripps.edu/~jsmith/jazip/download.html
	E-MAIL : jsmith@scripps.edu

There is a FAQ on the topic - it has this to say:
What drives/interfaces does jaZip support?

jaZip supports the Iomega Zip drive (both parallel and SCSI interface
versions) as well as the SCSI Jaz drive. It does not support IDE
interface drives. It does not support Syquest drives. 

which would lead one to believe that parallel support is available,
perhaps even WITH documentation.
