Whats the good of a print formatter if I can hook up a printer?
A. Yes you can. There is a port on the back of your machine labelled “Printer” or “LPT” and that is what it’s for. It uses the same type of dual inline ribbon cable connector as a floppy or hard drive, but with 26 pins. You can get them from large electronics suppliers, such as Aztec. Looking at the connector on the back of the machine you have two rows of 13 pins. key slot in center 25 | 1 | | | ooooooooooooo ooooooooooooo | | 26 2 The top row is all odd numbered pins with number 25 on the left and number 1 being on the right. The bottom row is all even numbered pins with number 26 being on the left and number 2 being on the right.
