My first thought is to spy on the serial communication

Before you do that, see if you can find any documentation on the protocol - it's always better to work from proper documentation than trying to reverse-engineer!

All I have is the service manual of the tape drive including schematics and mechanical assembley. I think the computer is too old and before the days of microsoft. Today I will try to see the computer brand and search for documentation.
