   The Imagewriter is a serial printer. You'd have a lot more luck
connecting it to the serial port on an IBM. (Out of ports? Cheap IBM
serial boards run about $15, I've heard). Anyhow, there ought to be
a set of info detailing the cables and all (others have done them;
it's no big deal) ought to be archived somewhere like cco, but I
can't see any. Anyone want to help out?
