     It may be that PR# is working as it should but the result is not
what you expect. PR# tells where you want to go to handle outputs. For
example, PR#1 says you want to execute code associated with Slot 1
beginning at $C100. Often, a printer interface card is in Slot 1 and
PR#1 says you want to print out your outputs.

     The Laser has more built-in I/O hardware and associated firmware
than a IIe.
