Interface Boards
There are a number of optional interfaces that can be used to supplement
the capabilities of your printer’s built-in parallel interface.
Choosing an interface
Optional interfaces can be divided into three main categories:
l
IEEE-488 interfaces offer standardized connections, trouble-free
operation, and the ability to connect computers, printers, and other
devices
on
the same line so that they can share data freely.
l
Buffered parallel interfaces give the printer more memory and free up
the computer for other tasks when printing large amounts of text or
graphics. With a buffered parallel interface, you can increase the
printer’s data buffering capacity to 32 Kbytes (about 10 pages).
Parallel interfaces also offer the advantage of trouble-free operation
combined with standardized connectors.
