There's an add-on communications board that includes serial, parallel  
(printer, IIRC) and HPIB (!)

TDS2CM http://www.teknetelectronics.com/Search.asp?p_ID=13987&pDo=DETAIL

Alas, it's priced like an HPIB peripheral :-(

More recently, Tek seems to have wised up and noticed that a serial  
interface is practically free if your box already contains a  
microcontroller, and USB adds about $5 for one of those FTDI chips,  
and HPIB doesn't need to be included by default.
