Re: TI-H: expansion
Ok, you want the pinout of the ISA slot? Are you trying to build another
printer port? Or are you using the printer port to do something else?
email me at reb@netride.com and I can help you. Tell me what you are trying
to do on your project, and I can tell you everything you need to know.
