[comp.periphs.printers] Printer assistance requested

v127p9xg@ubvmsa.cc.buffalo.edu (Robert J Miskines) (09/12/90)

It would seem reasonable to want to interface the two? This would be simple
if it were not for the fact that the printer is a 'Twinax' device, 'Twinax'
being the interface IBM uses on its System 3x series. 

I have located an interface, however, the company that manufactures it asks
$1395. This is unacceptable. 

I would appreciate information on where i could obtain an interface (at a 
significantly lower cost);(the preferred option). I would also appreciate 
, if i cannot obtain an interface, at least a schematic for such, or at the 
bare minimum, tech specs on the 'Twinax' protocol/interface. 


Thank you
Robert J Miskines
