[comp.sys.atari.st.tech] Printing on old parallel printers

rlcollins@miavx1.acs.muohio.edu (Ryan 'Gozar' Collins) (07/19/90)

I need help. I have an old 132 column printer, a Centronics Printstation 
351, and I would like to print to it from my ST, but it won't print right 
now, though it prints from an IBM with no problem. I remember reading that 
the ST had problems with the timing of old parallel printers. Can this be 
fixed ir software? Or will it have to be a hardware hack?
