Does look that way.
I just looked at the printer setup in Lucid and the following OKIs have
drivers - maybe one of them will suit you:
Microline 182, 192+, 600CL, 620CL, IBM Compatible 9-pin; and ML 320,
321, 380.
Also the Epson LQ-500.
Quite often the driver for a closely numbered printer to the one one has
will work. For example, my printer is an HP 8450 Photosmart but the HP
8400 driver works perfectly with the printer.
