Does anyone on the net have experience with printer buffers, typically 64KB, that are connected between the cpu and the printer, for a Diablo 630 or similar printer using a serial interface? Please comment on pricing, reliability, any problems with WordStar or other WP packages that use control characters to control the printer. Also please note if I can buy a "minimum" configuration, say 32K, and upgrade myself with chips I buy myself. Please mention any useful or *useless* features. If you are reading this message in a newsgroup other than net.periph, (the name here at Fortune Systems for that group,) please reply in that newsgroup if possible.
