I suggest you check EBay for an HP 2225. I see ThinkJet printers,
including some with HP-IB interfaces, offered every two or three
weeks.

Search under the strings HP-IB, HPIB and GPIB in addition to
the printer model number.

No problem, already doing this, several in the US and Australia... none have
yet replied to my enquiry about postage. Damn shame.

All I want to do is print out the trace from a HP NetAnal...

If you can get a 7475 plotter it will do the same job. push plot button on
your analyzer versus print button. any of their plotters will work as long
as it has the HP-IB interface. Plotter or printer must be in "listen
always" mode. You may have a tough time getting ink cartridges or pens. if
you do and they don't work soak them in water. you can even add ink to a dry
pen, it will "wick" up the wet ink intio the dry pen.

Re-inking is a desperate tactic, since the little fiber tips of the pens get
worn down and broaden. KOH-I-NOOR still makes pens for the 74xx series of
plotters. I still have 3 7440's that I'm keeping going. (One of them had
the membrane switch wear out, but it's easy to mount a couple of SPST
momentary contact switches into the plastic housing and wire them to the
appropriate pins on the membrane switch header. The two pads that die first
are the power on/off and the paper grip/release.)
