My father in-law uses a ibm pc "compatible" and wants to interface
it to his Olivetti typewriter (ET221).  Evidently the typewriter
has the capability to be driven as a printer, but locating the
proper interface is the problem.

He lives in Hong Kong and has asked me to try to locate the interface
here in the states.  I would appreciate if someone could point me in
the right direction, (i.e. vendors, Mail-order houses, etc.). 
He will be visiting here in late July and I would like to find one by then.

I do not subscribe to this newsgroup so please send me E-mail.

Thanks (very much) in advance.
