[comp.sys.atari.st] Atari 1027 printer on an ST?

John.Bunch@samba.acs.unc.edu (BBS Account) (08/21/90)

Hello all,

I just recently was given an atari 1027 printer, and would like to
know if it is possible to hook the beast to my ST?  I realize that 
it may require building some sort of adapter so the st can talk to 
the SIO port on the printer.  Has anyone ever attempted such a thing?
Is it possible to do?   And If you not sure, do you know where I
may be able to get the manual for the printer?  It was given to me
without a manual and without a power supply...

I have seen a package for this at a local electronics store.
I remember its price being around DM 40,- .
It consists of an interface-board and a disk (containing driver
software, I guess ;-)
