[comp.sys.hp] Need printer help- Diablo and HP

doc@holin.ATT.COM (David Mundhenk) (12/20/88)

ago with no response. A lot of printer discussion seems to take place
here so I hope no one minds this posting... 8->


This is a request for information or a number to call for info:

I recently acquired a DIABLO C 150 Color Printer in a swap, and
of course I got NO DOCUMENTATION...

This is the one that uses four little ink cartridges - not a ribbon.
I want to use it with IBM Compatible PC's and possibly a UNIXpc.
I have tried it with an AT Clone with no success whatsoever.

If anyone can supply me with advice, documents (I pay postage),
or a number I can call (Xerox, Diablo, Dear Abby), I would greatly
appreciate it.

Also, I have been trying to get an HPThinkjet to work with my AT clone.
I have the manual for this one and set all the dips according to instruc-
tions, set the "MODE" correctly as far as I can tell, with no luck.
It works with my UNIXpc in text mode, but I don't think I can print
graphics on it.  Any suggestions?

Thanx!
Dave
