There are adapters available, you just have to look. Also you could add a cheap USB card and I know that there are USB to parallel adapters, I've seen ads for them......once again all you have to do is look...... The question though is if you can find a Mac driver for it. If you put in CUPS you could probably find a driver for it. CUPS comes with OS X 10.3 and you can install it on 10.2.
Hope this helps....
