It seems to me that converting that parallel data to serial would turn
the handshaking to be performed in hardware, so it will be fast, and I
would not loose (synchronization) strobes and bytes
consequently. Additionally I could be helped by the serial port
buffer.

About the PDF Writer, I don't know if I understand your suggestion,
but I would need to configure a printer like I do in my computer,
isn't it? The problem is that the equipment is "closed", it just sends
ascii data to a printer.
