Hi all;

I have a new-to-me portable printer, the Citizen Notebook Printer II. Its thermal, I like the output, and it won't clog like an inkjet one would as it sits for ages doing nothing. And I can get the thermal tape for it for $7 at Staples. the battery is great. Seems perfect for light use, and even fits into my laptop bag nicely.

However, I don't think I can do anything with it under OSX.

Keyspan makes a cable adapter but says GIMP-Print needed for drivers; GIMP-print has only one Citizen printer listed, one that uses the laserjet driver so very different. I don't see a way to put the Citizen Notebook Printer II into an Epson mode... but I've also not found a real manual. I have looked at the list of configurable options at powerup of the printer though.

Strydent/Powerprint has the 5.0 product which is not actually available for sale form their shopping cart, which isn't a good sign. They list a ton of compatible Citizen printers but say nothing re: OSX and nothing about the particular model printer I have.

Does someone know if this has an Epson mode I can put it into, or if I could print to it as a lpr somehow if I get it some sort of network adapter?

I know this thing is old but it fits more of my niche need than one of the more curent portables I've seen lately.

Anyone have any information to share about it? Recollections even- Citizen is gone, no online records seem to exist, I've looked for ages.

Thanks,

Brian
