<<This is a fairly simple one but worth telling anyway. We have a power
failure in the medical area. Our 937 went into battery mode. At the time
of the power failure a large printout was in progress on one of our 256x
printers. After about 45-50 minutes the power came back. The printers
came back on line and the large report picked up right where it left off,
almost as though the power failure never happened.>>

Trivia question: how and why would this story be different in the case of
a printer not connected via HPIB? ;-)
