ABSTRACT:
A control apparatus for transferring characters from a font memory to a printer including a microprocessor which controls input and output of characters to and from a strip memory, tracks the status of input/output operations to insure overwriting of the memory does not occur, and supplies a minimal amount of control information to hardwired circuitry from which character building processes are autonomously controlled.
