I have recently moved out of the academic community into the outside world, so I have realized the one great danger of this move: I am now without access to a printer. I don't think I even remember what I typewriter looks like. A friend of mine gave me an Inforunner Riteman printer (looks a bit like an Epson lineprinter, but I am not sure if it is a clone) to use with my 7300, but I'll be jigged if I can get the thing to work. The Riteman has the same parallel connection as the 7300 has, the flat 36-connection hookup. Help! I have no way to print things out until I get this working! Could someone please mail to me *personally* (I am dialing up long distance to CMU and cannot afford the phone time to read the newsgroup) as many as possible of 1. How to get this to work 2. pinouts for the parallel connection on the 7300 3. general hints 4. total discouragement if this is really *impossible* Thanks for your help!!! Any of the addresses in the header or in the .sig should work. Jen PS: if you need more information to follow up on this, please send me mail. /=============================================================================\ |Jennifer Quirin Carnegie Mellon, ECE/math class of 91| |quirin@{cs,ece,andrew}.cmu.edu <= internet | |known_world!harvard!andrew.cmu.edu!jq07 <= uucp | |=============================================================================| |Opinions expressed herein are not CMU's, and are probably not even mine, | |since I am not really posting; I am not even really in Pittsburgh anymore. | \=============================================================================/
