Hi Nigel,

I have hardcopy of a 15 or so page loose leaf manual for “MDB PDP-11 LINE PRINTER CONTROLLER (CENTRONICS INTERFACE)”, and believe I also have the matching quad-height board in my stores.

The manual has pinouts and a six or seven page “theory of operation” section with timing diagrams and block diagrams, but no actual schematics.

It claims toward the end that “The MDB PDP-11 Line Printer Controller is completely compatible with DEC diagnostic software.  Use that software to verify correct operation and for trouble analysis.”

I would be happy to scan this later this evening and send you a copy if that would be helpful?
