Subject: Electronic Typewriter as a Printer




        Back in about 1984, I picked up a new Brother CE-50 Electronic
typewriter.  One of the the reasons I bought it was that it was supposedly
compatible with a computer to be used as a printer.  I've since misplaced the
manual, but it said something about having to buy an interface box to be used
with an Apple computer.
        I've since purchased an Apple //c w/ an Imagewriter 2.  However, when I
was digging through the closet the other day, I "re-discovered" the typewriter
and I wondered whether or not I might use it as a letter quality printer.  Does
anyone know of or have any experience in rigging up an interface between an
electronic typewriter and a //c?  Another suggestions would be appreciated. 

Thanks,
        Rick
