# Hardware Review: Centronics Printer Interface

The untimely demise of Timex as a computer company left the American Sinclair computer owner in a real pickle. Fortunately, Sinclair has always encouraged the after market producers of software and peripherals. A number of these barnstormers in computer excellence have continued to support the entire line of TS computers. Of special note is AERCO. AERCO produced a line of printer and disk drive interface cables for the ZX 81/TS 1000, 1500 computers. They have now introduced a printer interface and project the introduction of a disk drive interface for the TS 2068.
