Inmac, a mail order pc and workstation supply company, has many
print buffers and switches in its catalog. The cheapest, I think, was $75.

This is not an endorsement--I've never tried them. I might later though.

If you can't get an Inmac catalog from some computer person there, I can
dig up a catalog and send their number to you.
