Hello, I just purchased a Tandy (Radio Shack) DMP 130 dot matrix printer at a local HamFest. It works fine and gave no problems on an ordinary, text-only, hookup where no escape sequences were needed. However, the printer test routine reveals a rich and varied character set. I'd like to know the ESCape sequences by which we can access it. Also, I'd generally like to know all the handshakes, etc. I will be trying to purchase a manual from RS but am not optimistic. Does anyone know what the DMP 130 is or is similar to? I thought it might have been an Epson LX-80, but the ribbons don't fit, and I see that I need the Seikosha SP 1000 ribbons. So, perhaps that's what it is. But does this help? Can I get a manual for the Seikosha? Does anyone have a mail/address or phone # for Seikosha? Please post or send e-mail; e-mail is preferred as news articles expire here in 5 days or less. Thanks, _Brint -- _Brinton Cooper BRL - Where "Research" is our Middle Name.
