Hello All,
I am a very recent user of the Altair clone. I have an Okidata serial printer that I want to use on port 2. I can save myself a lot of experimenting if one of you could tell me what pin on the altair connects to what pin on the Printer. I saw on this forum where one of you had used an okidataa printer, but when I went searching for him I couldn't find the forum entry. I would appreciate a direct contact with the correct wiring. I have really enjoyed all the interesting discussion on this forum. In addition to the Altair, I have an IBM 7155 Portable pc that I bought new in 1984. I used it in Graduate School. It still works and I do a lot of word processing on it still.
Anyway I have a very steep learning curve on the Altair. I have printed out all the pdf manual files, and am now plowing through those. I look forward to hearing from one of you with a suitable wiring for my printer.
Thanks in advance for your support
John D
