Maybe about time to convert to RS232!

If it is any help, many years ago, when our tape punch packed up, we got a board made up (1 chip and a couple of resistors, very cheap) to connect to an old computer via a parallel port. Worked a lot better than the old tape ever did.
Our old Strippit fc1000's just ended up with old pc's connected with printer cables.
