Abstract

See full text

A printer control apparatus includes a modem for receiving text data in the EBCDIC protocol and generic printer control codes from a host data base and a converter for converting the received information to drive a non-standard printer. A preprogrammed EPROM in cooperation with a CPU, converts the EBCDIC protocol language to the ASCII language. An EEPROM is remotely programmed to store printer control codes which are peculiar to the specific printer being supported.
