I posted this inforamtion in another group also. Try getting this :
"Interface Circuit for Printer Port"
LAR-13950, from NASA Tech Brief:
 the purpose of this device is to convert any existing printer port on an IBM
pc/xt/at .... to a general purpose 8 - bit data, 16 bit address bus that can be
interfaced to a number of devices.
