I have the Sequential 1MB buffer card in my Imagewriter II. It gives you
4 options:
1) 1MB version of 32KB card - works on 8 bit // and //gs
2) Fast 1MB buffer - changes port speed to fastest supported by
//gs - not supported with 8 bit //
3) Appletalked Imagewriter
4) Multiple print queues to single Imagewriter - printer has up to 4?
names and up to that many computers can send to the printer at the
same time (subject to size of documents vs buffer size).
I have only tried it in mode 1 and it works well.
