    Generally if you have invoices/dockets that require being printed by dotmatrix printer, no other software, other then the software that generates the invoices/dockets would be required (assuming it is standard software that allows to print). After that it is just a matter of installing correct driver and making sure print settings are correct.

    Yep except for it'll be just a teeny bit louder.

    Also if you want fancy invoices with logos etc. then you might need to look at getting fanfold stationery preprinted.

    Be careful when buying the Dot Matrix Printer. Most modern computers do not have a parallel interface, you will probably need a printer with a usb connection which in not always fitted as standard.

    You will need to check this before you buy.

    I have a Belkin usb to parallel cable that works with my HP Laserjet 6P no probs (and it's a lot faster than using a computer with parallel port).
