         <---- he went thataway ---->

I am planning to design a homebrew Commodore Serial to
Centronics Parallel printer interface.  In looking at what
commercial versions offer, I find that many boast full
compatibility with the 1525 printer.

Short of buying the printer to get the manual, can anyone out
there explain what constitutes 1525 compatibility?  I'm NOT
looking for hardware info on the serial bus. What I need to
know about are any applicable secondary addresses and special
characters that are interpreted as printer commands.

Any info or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
