Just make sure your application software can handle Xon-Xoff, Since there
is no hardware handshake on the Diablo 6XX series. I have the manuals so
if you need a copy, we can work something out. 

BTW, four of my six 620s are for sale. All have tractor feed option AND
dual bin sheet feeders. $200 + freight from Phoenix
