I have 2 Dayna Etherprint-T interfaces
Posted by: SkippRnim on 2026-02-04 13:13:07
Hey there, I've been going through my old peripherals and found that I have two Dayna EtherPrint-T Interfaces. I'm not sure what use I could have for these as I don't have any ADB or Centronics style connected printers anymore… I moved too many times and crying over the stuff I had to leave behind.

Anyway, is there another use for these that I don't know about? If there is only use for them with printers, is there anyone here that would or has been looking for any of these that want to make me an offer to buy them before I put them on eBay? I'm in Canada, so keep that in mind for shipping.

Wish I still had my StyleWriter II and 1200.

** Edit: looks like I don't have the power supplies, so need to figure out what power they need. **

I got a second hand wall-wart power supply which puts out 9v dc 500
mA. The connector on the wall-wart cable has a socket for a central pin and
an outer conductive barrel. The socket is +, the outer barrel is -
according to the power supply label.
I plugged it into the Etherprint-T Plus and it ran fine for at
least 5 minutes (after which I unplugged it and went to bed). I'll let you
know if it causes trouble later. YMMV, of course, but as far as I can tell
Mike's forwarded post took care of me perfectly. Thanks, Mike!

With appropriate AUI-to-10Base-T converters you may be able to use them for general localtalk to ethernet bridges.
