Thanks to all those who responded to my question about a serial
interface for the HP Thinkjet printer.  The answer is no, the
Thinkjet is not (yet) offered with a serial interface.  It may 
be purchased with the following interfaces: Centronics, HP-IB,
and HP-IL, which I have been told is a Hewlett Packard proprietary 
interface (not RS232-C as I had speculated).  Some people said
they had heard rumors about possible introduction of a serial
interface in the short term,and one respondant from Teletype
Corp. even had a prototype version, however, no one had any
real info on when such a product might be offered.
