Found this in a basement storage..

Parallel printer port, drivers for dos & win95.

Found fairly inexpensive cables online, parallel ->usb that works with MacOs 9.x -> osx 10.5.

The BJC-80 & 85 should work with MacOS classic. 

Whats your experience of connecting vintage printers using generic/same brand printer drivers?

Hmm, seems that I might be wrong about mac drivers for BJC-80 and 85.The only drivers I found was to an attachment, Canon is-12, wich replaces the printhead and turn the printer into a scanner..

A bit strange that there are drivers for the accessories but not the printer itself..
