Sorry George.... a 3812 is/was the very first of the native IPDS laser
printers and many if not most of the printer data streams are based on
the 3812(very full function laser). That data stream was based on the
5219 data stream, but that's another long and boring story....

It was never "just" an ascii printer....

It could be attached to about anything IBM made at the time: 1987 --
1991
