PIL BOX with IL connector - Johnboy - 11-23-2023 11:24 AM

I know this has been done before using a recycled connector (https://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-14287.html), but my go at this uses the IL connector from a 2225B printer. Makes a neat job I think.

Unfortunately I have now used the 2 of these connectors I had, the other one I used on my IL mass storage emulator.

Cheers,
John

Consider extending the LED up through a hole in the top cover. Makes an easy way to monitor HP-IL activity. You could also use a light pipe.
