Laser 128 --> Apple //e :-)



Hi everyone--
 
I'm in the process of upgrading from a Laser 128 to a bonafide Apple
//e.  I got a used //e, and with it a SuperExpander card for slot 3.
It came fully populated with 1 meg of RAM.  I got a diskette with the
card, but no other documentation.  Does anyone know where I can get
the additional information on programming the card?  I'd like to use
that extra memory for code overlays, or better, figure out some way
to partition it off between a code overlay area and a ram disk.
 
I'm also having some problems with my #2 disk drive.  I've got the
standard Apple Disk ][ interface card, with 2 Apple 5 1/4 drives. The disk
#2 will read, but it will not write.  Either drive is fine as drive #1,
but neither will write as drive #2.  I'm thinking it has toa be a chip on
the interface card.  Anyone have any ideas? 
 
And, while I have your attention, I just picked up an Apple 4 color pen 
plotter
for cheap at the local pawn shop.  If I can get the docs, I can write the
driver software.  Any body have any idea on that?  Apple Computer, at 
least as
far as their answer line goes, practically denies ever manufacturing such an
animal, let alone supporting it.  How short their memory is!  I can just
imagine asking about an Apple ][!
 
That'll do for now.  I've had a heck of a time getting anything
posted here, but if this makes it, all is well now :-)).
