The Imagewriter is a serial printer, so I just plugged the dock directly into the printer with a db25-de9 adapter

    I'm definitely going to have to look into this. I have a bunch of old Pocket PCs and I wonder if they would have a similar, simple solution.

    I've of printed plenty of things through irda, but it would be neat to actually hook them up with a physical connection not to mention that would give me a wider variety of printers to choose from.
