If you want more informatinon on the HP-IL, there are several documents
that you can get hold of. The first is a book that is (or maybe I should
say was, my information is about 1 1/2 years out of date) published by
Osborne/McGraw-Hill called "The HP-IL System: An Introductory Guide to the 
Hewlett-Packard Interface Loop". All of the rest of the documents are from
HP. "The HP-IL Interface Specification" and "The HP-IL Intergrated Circuit
User's Manual" provide information on the HP-IL "standard" and a spec. on
a CMOS IC that HP designed to control the HP-IL. All of the documents are
avalible in what HP calls the "HP-IL Interface Kit". I would think that you
could find more information by contacting the nearest HP Field Office.

Also, the January 1983 Hewlett-Packard Journal, the April 1982 Byte, and
the June 1982 Digital Design mag's have several articals on the HP-IL.


			Hope that I Have helped!!
