Greetings,
We have a AP Porta 1 (analog only) running V2.03 firmware. It's the version with a parallel printer port as opposed to the GPIB port. Has anyone found an available printer that will function with this unit? The manual doesn't mention anything specific, but the data sheet states:
" Portable One prints graphs, panel setups
and measured data either to laser (PCL compatible)
or inkjet printers."
Either new or used (but available without too much difficulty) is fine. I really like this instrument and the many tests that can be done with it, but still having to do any type of plots/graphs by hand (for clients) seems silly and a huge time investment. Thanks much for any suggestions.
PS...............if anyone has a source for the factory IMD option, PLEASE let me know! Any 3rd party firms that may be a helpful long shot (other than Duke A, whom I've spoken with a few times)?
Best, Jim
