The Ann ARbor requires an RS232 interface. My inclination is that the Apple is most commonly used with a parallel interface & that I would be better off with one. Can anyone recommend a dot matrix printer with reasonable quality which has both parallel 7 serial interfaces? Is there an external box which could convert the Ann Arbor to parallel? Finally does anyone have a serial based printer running with the Apple2 who could pass on personal experience? R. L. Carroll BTL Whippany,NJ 201-386-2609 harpo!bob .
