I know its a big ask but I have a canon BJC-210 printer, and I was wondering if I could get it to work with my Power Macintosh 7200. It has some epson emulation on it and all I would want it for is some basic text printer. It connects by parallel.
What you are looking for is called PowerPrint. It used to be sold by GDT then Strydent Software and has been discontinued. It has both a Mac serial to parallel adapter and drivers that work with well over 1000 printers and it supports your canon printer. Here is a link to general info on it:

There are a few copies on ebay and I am sure if you post a want to buy on the swap list you can find a copy. I have used that since running 6.0.8 on a Plus with an Okidata dot matrix through 8.6 on a 6100 with a variety of Lasers and it has always worked flawlessly for me.
