Now you  can choose the printer for your Honeywell Universal Station ...

The HPI-3000 Protocol Converter lets you replace the Honeywell matrix printer on your Universal Station with virtually any Hewlett Packard-compatible or Epson-compatible parallel printer. Choose any LaserJet or DeskJet printer from HP - or any other printer compatible with Hp's PCL3. Or choose any narrow or wide-carriage matrix printer compatible with Epson's MX-80. Take advantage of the low cost, high quality and reliability of today's best printers to enhance your Honeywell Universal Station.

A simple, hardware-only solution ...

The HPI-3000 connects to most Universal Stations using a standard RS232 cable (supplied with the unit). The printer connects to the other side of the interface (a 5½" x 4" x 1½" box) using a standard parallel printer cable (also supplied with the unit). Power to the HPI-3000 is supplied by a standard 9V adapter plugged in to a 110V AC outlet.

For LaserJet, DeskJet, and narrow-carriage matrix printers using 8½" x 11" (or A4) paper, all printed text uses a compressed font, to accommodate the narrower paper width. Screen prints are printed in landscape mode with these printers. Wide-carriage matrix printers are formatted like the Honeywell printer that they replace.

For Honeywell's newer "classic" furniture, (used also with Universal Stations), the monitor is accessed from the rear of the station, after removing the monitor cover.  For this style of furniture, we also offer a tray-mount option, for a quick installation with a  2.5" setback.  A bezel-mount version is also available, where we ship the display mounted in the bezel, and installation consists of removing the monitor and the old bezel, and installing the new bezel. 

Fast, reliable, affordable ...

The protocol translation introduces absolutely minimal time delay to the printing process. The time required to generate a printout is governed by the Universal Station and the speed of the printer you choose. A complex graphic screen print to a LaserJet IV takes 45 seconds, for example.

The HPI-3000 is based on a simple, rugged, trouble-free design that has developed a reputation for reliability in the field. The design is supported by Honeywell, and is sold by Honeywell as part no. 38002276-100.
