Here goes my perennial request again.  From the last time I posted this,
there was much interest in the solution but no one had any ideas on how
to solve the problem.  To put it simply:  is there a way of connecting
in an Atari 800XL or 1200XL to act as a 64k printer buffer with any com-
bination of 8 bit computer/850/printer?

I.e.:

	_________         _________           __________      __________
	|       |         |       |           |        |      |        |
	| 130XE |         |       |           | 1200XL |      | Legend |
	|   or  |-------->|  850  |---------->|   or   |----->|  1380  |
	| 800XL |         |       |           |  800XL |      |    *   |
	|Computr|         |Interfc|           |Ptr/Bufr|      | Printer|
	|_______|         |_______|           |________|      |________|

  * or Epson FX-80 or equivalent dot matrix printer

Thanks in advance.
