This is a more complete version of a question posted yesterday.
A student here has an Atari 1200 with a 1027 printer.
She and her mother get nothing at the printer after following
the directions. She can't find any self-test directions for that
printer. What should she do next.
Address answers to this board or
ab884 (Judson Elliott).
Thanks

I at one time had a 1027 printer. there is no help test availabele
as I remember. I do remember having the same problem quite a while
back. I switched the I/O cables with my disk drive AFTER the program
loaded in. and it worked fine. So all I had to do was get a new I/O
cable. That is one nice feature of the 8-bit line. Most all the
perephials use the same I/O cable. If that does not work, try having
the printer looked at. Dont pay more than $40-50 to get it fixed,
because I saw them mail order for a little more than that.
Hope I helped.
