Commodore-to-PC printer adapter please?

Post by Commie_User »

Right, I want to plug my Commodore printer into the PC. That's a lot harder than finding an adapter to run a bog standard dot matrix from the Commodore serial.

Anybody know where to go?


Well, this is how to build or buy it but I'm unsure about homebrew for some reason: http://www.zimmers.net/anonftp/pub/cbm/crossplatform/transfer/misc/cbm-printer-to-ibm

There's mention of a long-lost one, which I'll probably never see on Ebay: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic ... TMKxhnn2Ow

Unless you out there can help with one in a box or something, it looks like I'll have to get burned fingers again. (Or just say sod it and buy another old Star for my rough prints.)
