Yup - before you do it, though, you will need to change the printer settings to serial output. Directions are listed in the manual, or you can hold the form feed button down then power up the computer. It will enter into programming mode and also give you an option to print out an instruction sheet. A downloadable manual can also be forund at epson.com.
