Interfaces were modular.  RS-232C, Centronics, HP 8-bit, HP-IB and
DataProducts parallel were available.  Documentation may still be available
for the 2631A, but if it doesn't already have an interface you can use, it
will be difficult to upgrade it.

The 2631A is probably "off support life", having been discontinued over 10
years ago.  The 2631A was replaced by the 2631B/G, which was replaced by the
2930-series which was replaced by the current 2235 "RuggedWriter".
