[net.micro.hp] Think-Jet Printer interface question

My information (March '84, PPC journal) lists three models of the 
Think-Jet Printer:
	2225A	AC power	HP-IB interface
	2225B	Battery power	HP-IL interface
	2225C	AC power	Centronics interface

Does anyone know if RS-232 with XON/XOFF flagging is planned?

Sounds like a cute little printer, but not if I have to use one of the
above mentioned interfaces.

My HP rep brought by a unit with a hand-build serial interface,
(engineering sample or some such), which I connected to
my Teletype 5620 DMD, and which I successfully dumped Epson
format bitmap graphics. 

I said give it to me now, in quantities.

He said that it would be several months before 
they where in production.
