I'm in the market for a fast, "correspondance quality" printer to
hook up to my C 64.  The HP ThinkJet machine is neat technology
(fast, high res, incredibly quiet, probably ultra reliable), but
with a Commodore CPU (funny graphics characters, non-standard output,
PETSCII, etc, etc.) I'm obviously a bit worried that I won't be able
to find a suitable interface.  (The ThinkJet is "standard Centronix
parallel", but with God-knows-what control sequences and funny little
HP conventions).  Has anyone out there had any experience with the
C64 - ThinkJet combination?  Did it work????

Any and all comments gratefully received by
