[comp.sys.tandy] DMP 106 help needed

LUSGR@vax1.cc.lehigh.edu (Steve Roseman) (10/31/89)

I have a Tandy DMP 106 printer (cheap, but working) which I have used for
several years, but using only the serial interface.  I now would like to use
it on a PC-type machine's parallel port, but it doesn't work for me.

I have the switches set ON/OFF/OFF/OFF (IBM mode, etc.)  A print operation 
seems to send the data to the printer, but it doesn't do anything.  (The PC
thinks it went somewhere.)  The behavior is the same with different cables
and different types of PCs.

Does anyone have any suggestions or experience (positive or negative) with
this printer?

Thanks,
Steve
