Notorious b.s.d. posted:hp printers always had pcl built in, which was a 100% postscript clone didn't adobe basically force Apple out of the printer business by refusing to lower the postscript licensing costs, which left Apple unable to compete against the influx of cheap, lovely printers (short of abandoning postscript)? also, I thought a big thing for PCL (aside from no postscript licensing fees) was to enable making the printers themselves cheaper by not requiring as much processing horsepower on the printer? edit: vvv yeah, PCL wasn't a 100% postscript clone vvv Doc Block fucked around with this message at 17:57 on Aug 12, 2017 |

A shameless clone. postscript, but worse, and cheaper.

so what sort of interface would need a bunch of separately shielded 4 pin connectors?

love the AMP series 1 CPC's, we use them for our 1-off controllers at work. Only thing I dislike is their pin counts are a bit weird sometimes. for bullshit worst connectors, i submit the lovely tape light connector that lots of vendors sell: These loving suck. They always eventually fail. solder your wire directly to the strip like a loving grown up.

Both contacts, when used in Amphenol MIL-DTL-38999 Series III and ARINC type connectors, provide an excellent alternative for harsh environment applications such as: Ethernet 100 Base-T-100 Ohm, Gigabit Ethernet 1000 Base-T-100 Ohm, Fibre Channel-150 Ohm, IEEE1394B FireWire-110 Ohm.

Lightbulb Out posted:here's a datasheet with more info https://www.newark.com/wcsstore/ExtendedSitesCatalogAssetStore/cms/asset/images/americas/common/storefront/te_connectivity/quadrax.pdf on them so i guess they use them for two differential lines per quadrax? i guess that's useful for the standards listed, seems like faster interconnects like 10 gbe direct attach cables use separately shielded twinax. -- these are pretty ok, amphenol ecomate, allegedly ip67 when mated, leading ground for safety. all plastic and no good way to terminate shielding so best for lower frequency high power stuff, 4 pin versions have screw terminations so they're pretty easy to field assemble.

Notorious b.s.d. posted:pcl was hp-specific. the same pcl looked fine on every hp. all bets are off when you go to another vendor. I know it's not connector specific but does any one have some good old printer chat about IPDS and the ole workhorse the laserjet4. I remember working for a hospital ages and ages ago and LAserJet4s were everywhere. users would nearly cry when they were replaced with 4250s and newer. Some unit directors clung on to them for dear life an my guess is that if I ever went back there would be at least a few dozen running somewhere and I bet the oldAS400 is still powered on doing something...... even after countless replacement attempts. I would even guess they maintain two of those giant IBM commercial refrigerator size printers too. The last person I knew that still worked there says they moved epic after their last HIS flaiure. Cdw was raping the company for all the IPDS chips in exchange for hand jobs is my guess.
