[GreenKeys] Windows drivers for Model 43

[DR HOUSE]

Kevin,

Eric has a point.  Like I mentioned there are several interface modules.
Some have a RJ-11 with a built-in modem. Some are EIA 232.
Some are current loop.  Perhaps you could do some experimenting.
I will look in my manuals to see if I can find something to assist you.

P.S.  I fail to see how this could be off topic.

Is the Model 43 an RS232 interface? If so you might be able to tell  
windows
it's a "generic" printer or something like that so that it will just  
try to
send plain text to that, if you can still do that in windows. You  
should be
able to feed it with a USB-to-RS232 adaptor. The pictures I've seen of  
the
43 appear to show a DB25 connector which *could* mean it's RS232 but  
I've
seen current loop on DB25 too, so that's not conclusive.
