I've got hold of an IBM Color Jetprinter 3852 Model 2. It has a parallel
interface and appears to work. Does anyone have any info on this?
I need to know things like;

1) Is it compatible with standard IBM printer in normal mode?
2) What are the control codes to activate the colors?
3) How easily are the ink cartridges available, and what do they cost?
4) It doesn't seem too fast. I guess it s a fairly old model. What is
the rated cps?

If anyone has info (or better still, a manual), I'd appreciate hearing
from you. TIA
