Ancient LaserJet-3 question

And the newer machine than the MIO's use EIO - such as the 4000 series and
others. I have an unused II/III series XIO in a box around here, maybe I'll
dig it out and post the HP type and part number.

The customs for the P types are almost impossible to locate anymore since I
think they weren't big sellers and cost too much so HP cut production on
them. Of course ANY parallel type printer can use a generic print server,
attached to the printer port, OR use an old 386 or 486 machine w/ network
card as a print server to take the load off the other machines.
