Apropos connecting a X terminal via a serial line :

the X terminals that I looked at come with only one
serial port. I want to use the X terminal at home using
a 9600 Baud modem connection and also connect a laser
printer. The DEC vt420 terminal that I am using so far
has an additional serial port, which allows printing.

Does anybody know of a X terminal that can handle (or has)
two serial ports, one for the connection to the host, and
one for a local printer ?

Any help is appreciated.
