The ThinkJet printer is available with a Centronics, 
HP-IB (Hewlett-Packard's implementation of IEEE-488)
or HP-IL interface.  The Centronics version is designed
to be compatible with most popular software packages,
the HP-IB version is designed to be compatible with 
current HP systems, as well as other computers using 
IEEE-488, and the HP-IL version is compatible with the 
41C family of calculators, the 75C and 75D handheld 
computers, the 71B advanced calculator and the 85, 86
and 87 personal computers, as well as other devices
through HP interfaces between HP-IL and HP-IB (IEEE-488),
RS-232 or acoustic modem or through custom interfaces 
(HP sells HP-IL interface kits and parts, including the 
IC, sockets and all discrete parts).  The HP-IL version 
is battery powered, with a battery life of well over a 
hundred pages between charges (it uses NiCad rechargeable
batteries and comes with a recharger), while the other 
versions must be plugged in.
