OK... if you want a -really- basic 3100/M38, get in contact with this
guy. I think he may be disappointed when he finds out what the boxes are
worth in the real world.

Greetings all;
Looking for some information on a new find. A Data I/O Tape Perforator.
It's an 8 level, desktop paper tape punch with LED data display (one LED
for each channel), and apparently a parallel interface of some type, altho
the connector looks somewhat similar to an IEEE-488 connector. However
looking at the logic board in the thing pretty much rules out a '488
interface. (not nearly enuf smarts on the board)
So... I'm seeking some info on this thing, most specifically with regard
to the interface. And before you ask, there is no 'model' number shown on
the unit. The ID plate on the back just says "tape perforator".
Looked at the Data I/O web site, and found nothing (big surprise... not!)
So before I break down and call them to find that no one has any clue as to
what I'm asking (sarcasm flag) about, I figured I'd try here.
Any help?

Hey, I still have one, in my computer room (ex-spare bedroom) at home.
It's not so ancient, anyway, it's worked for the last 30 years, probably
good for another 30. The bell is disconnected so it doesn't ring, an
excellent feature.

Ok,
Sorry about the delay, I got busy with work and didn't get around to
working on the Sun unti tonight :)
I cleaned the heads with some isopropyl alcohol tonight, but to no avail,
I still get the dreaded 96A0 error, I'm beginning to suspect the tapes,
however it doesn't matter what tape I put in, it gives exactly the same
error, so unless all 4 SunOS tapes have had it, it may be the drive.
Further to the error codes, a tape with write protect off gives 86A0 error
:)
Thanks
Karl

Intel sued and attempted to block. They would loose and V20 deliveries
were never interrutped to sales to new design ins were slowed.
The original V20 was Nmos like the 8088, though lower power. The cmos
parts were later.

The actual drive is the TK50. There is a scsi bridge to make it a tk50z.
