[M100] Tandy 600 ram

I've now added an all through-hole version of the TANDY 600 ram card, because why not? There's even room for sockets and the BOM includes them. https://github.com/bkw777/TANDY_600_RAM Also changed to a simpler circuit that uses just 3 AND gates instead of an 8:3 encoder. The new idea isn't

I use the Retro-Printer module (https://www.retroprinter.com/) attached to a Raspberry Pi to print over a wired network to one of two modern laser printers or one modern inkjet printer. You can also just send the output to PDF files. From the computer's perspective, it emulates an old EPSON

any text ascii printer with a serial or centronics parallel interface nothing modern will work directly unless it specifically says DOS support.. the m100 sends no codes no protocols. just ascii text I have a pi hat in my store that emulates a dos printer on the pi and outputs PDF files that

Will the m100 work with pretty much any parallel port printer or does it have to have a specific driver? What kinds or printers work with the m100 these days? Will

My solution to this has been to use typical laplink serial cables (built in gender changer and db25 + db9 options on each end) plus thin hood gender changers. The advantage is the durable bits are the more expensive parts... the cables and the m100 port since they're female. Pins eventually get

Hi Brian, Thanks for the details, it'll take me a while to work through this, but it sounds believable and achievable. I have purchased one of the ideal cables you mention. If I understand correctly, the ideal cable should work fine hooked up between my dell and the m100 because the dell has a

I've documented some all-in-one correctly wired serial cables, and what makes them special, to go from a pc to a 100 here: http://tandy.wiki/Model_T_Serial_Cable And the most convenient way to move files is with a tpdd emulator, or at least a bootstrapper. It's not convenient that you have to
