[comp.os.vms] Q-bus Centronix ports

kjm@EMX.UTEXAS.EDU (Ken Montgomery) (02/25/88)

Is there a vendor out there that makes a board that talks to printers that
use the Centronix interface?  Is there such a board that does DMA output
(or even just has an output silo)?  Is there such a board that reports device
status bits individually?  I'm trying to find better alternatives to the
LP11-style interface (one byte out per interrupt (no DMA or silo), only
one status bit: "something is wrong").


thanks in advance,

Kenneth J. Montgomery
