[GreenKeys] Teletype Model 40 Printer with Windows

[Derek Cohn/WB0TUA]

Hi Everyone,

A local ham here in St. Louis is a retired lineman for Western Union.  He has a Teletype Model 40 printer that he has been unable to interface with a Windows machine since it has an RS-232 input (if I understand him correctly).

Does anyone know how to interface a Windows machine (he has both a Windows 98 an a Windows XP machine) with the serial input of the Teletype Model 40 printer?

Thanks for any help you guys can give us!
