I have a 5 year old C.ITOH 8510 printer that works fine. However, it isn't
compatable with the what DOS expects to see for a printer; ESC
sequences different, characters 128-255 different, etc.

My question:
Does anyone know if there are aftermarket proms available for this
printer that would make it ibm/epson compatable? I hate to dispose of
this printer, since it works well and has a push tractor (unlike the
printer I am now using, an Epson LX-800).

Any other suggestions for getting around this compatability problem
would be most appreciated. Thanks.
