If I recall, the Iomega Guest program allows you to use a Zip drive in the absence of it's extension. Look in the extensions folder--there should be an extension relevant to Iomega and Zip drive use. Newer systems have tended to include an extension among the USB set for this, but it may not work with your SCSI drive. You may need an older extension for the device.
Just my two cents worth.
