This might be a red herring, but I wonder if the CL-PS7110 datasheet might be helpful.

It's a later revision (1997), sure, and an amalgamation of what was originally separated into separate chips, but I wouldn't be surprised if they used a similar design for serial I/O.  I believe the 7010 talked to a LTC1323 chip to handle RS-422.

And the printing company only had the manual left on tape backup, but the machine was no longer operating in a way they could easily restore the print.  I finally resorted to stripping away the chip casings and took some photos with a microscope, for fun, but had always hoped to reconfigure the 2x00 footprint by designing a custom PCB and would have liked to have had those specs.
