011- What are the DIP switches on my Grappler+ for? 

     The DIP switches are used to configure your card for a series of different 
printers out there. I'll list those settings: 
  

DIP switch settings: 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
DIP SWITCH POSITIONS                1    2     3    4 

Epson Series and Star Gemini      OFF   ON    ON   ON 
NEC 8023/C, Itoh 8510/DMP 85      OFF   ON    ON  OFF 
Centronics 739-1                  OFF   ON   OFF   ON 
Anadex Printers                   OFF   ON   OFF  OFF 
Okidata 82A, 83A, 92, 93, 84      OFF  OFF    ON   ON 
Okidata 84 w/o Step II Graphics   OFF  OFF   OFF   ON 
Apple Dot Matrix                  OFF  OFF    ON  OFF 
IDS Printers                      (Any position) 

Notes: DIP switch ON = "+" side or set to right. 
Switch 1 controls MSB, the 8th bit. Setting switch 1 to 'ON' 
makes MSB _not_ transmitted...
