Yes...printers work fine...
but
I would create a device description rather than use the
emulation on the 3488.

The emulation works fine but you have very little control of fonts,etc.

Create a devd using 3812 and use HPT.

You will find a ton of descriptions at rtvwscst that will cover
most HP printers.

Thanks for the info. I have a 'real' keyboard, so it has a Jump key. I tried
it out, and it works great. Now I just need to figure out how to get a
printer connected to it. Should I be able to connect a standard parallel
printer? I have an old HP LaserJet floating around somewhere.
