HP ThinkJet != HP LaserJet. Thinkjet is an ink jet printer, and comes in four flavors: HPIB (aka IEEE488), RS232, HPIL (proprietary HP interface) and Centronics parallel. So in my note above, I, too, misspoke! If it's a Centronics interface, you'll need one of the standard Centronics interfaces commonly available for the C64. LaserJets come with a dual (RS232-Centronics) interface (and cost many times what a c64 does!) Tom Bruhns uucp: !hplabs!hplsla!tomb
