[net.micro.cbm] PRINTER BUFFERS

ltd@mtfma.UUCP (L.DALLARA) (07/12/85)

Does anyone know how to add the 4K buffer to a star 10X printer,
Maybe its's as simple as plugging in some chips??

I believe it's a board that plugs into the main logic board of
the 10X.
You may want to re-consider getting a buffer. The printer only buffers
up to one line of print. If you do double density graphics, then this
could buy you something. But, if you are only doing ascii text, it
would be better to get some sort of external buffering device.
