We're planning an upgrade of 2 HP3000 machines to a 939 and a 959.
These new servers don't support HP-IB interfaces. Since there are 4
HP-IB-printers connected to these machines we've got to chance the
connection.
 
According to HP we need to replace the interfaces in our printers with
serial-interfaces and connect them through the dtc. I don't like this
solution for teh following reasons:
 
-  The interfaces are expensive (in my opinion anyway)
-  my dtc's are full. I haven't got 4 spare dtc-ports and there's no
   place for an extra dtc-board. So I also need a new dtc !!!
 
Is there an other solution for this problem ???
