Whoops, I forgot to mention. My Unitor 8 interface is a USB interface, with
extra RS232 and RS422. I was hoping it would make the iprint-LT adaptor
unnescessary, and still give me the much faster than midi communication with
the LanBox. I guess I would have to figure out if the unitor can recognize a
more raw serial input over USB and route it out the serial port? Is this a
possibility? Rather than buy the iPrint-LT I would rather wait until I can
buy the newer USB capable Lanbox.
