We bought a StarModel SP500 dot matrix serial port receipt printer last year, but just replaced it due to new circulation software; it still looks and acts new.  For $75, we'd include a 2-port parallel reversible auto switch and two serial port cords, plus 9 ink cartridges and five rolls of paper, and ship it free to you.  Email aldenlib@torchlake.com or call Sue at 231/331-4318.  Thanks!
