Wow, refuted in stereo!

Amigo is supported too by manually adding the right device in CONFIG.SYS.

So, while 9114 and 110/110+ do apparently support SS/80 (SS stands for Sub Set, meaning not the full CS/80 protocol; SS was used on low-end HP drives), I don't think this changes the core answer that a 9122 cannot be accessed from a '71 via HP-IL/HP-IB adapter, at least out of the box.

Should have stuck with the answer and not generalized...

Note however that it appears SS/80 can be emulated using low-level HP-IL commands as I have an HP-75 program listing "CS80 driver for HP-75 <=>HP-IB<=>HP9121 drives" which almost surely has a typo since the 9121 drives use Amigo. Most likely the drive model listed should be 9122.
