I need some information on a device I think I saw at a flea market once
(but, of course wasn't interested in at the time) which permitted use of
a Commodore printer with a PC/PC-clone.  My guess is that it converts the
parallel "Centronics-type" output from the PC to the Commodore serial bus.

I don't remember the manufacturer, but the name "Omnitronix", or something
like that, might be correct.

If anyone has an knowledge, experience, and/or pricing and availability
information, I'd appreciate it.  Reply via email, or post to the net if
you think it's of general interest.
