it could be, but it's not :> ... it's a Parallel Interface Card... I
have (or did have) one with the parallel cabel for it intact... i
don't have a clue what the DIP switches are for; likely linefeeds,
emulation, or the usual stuff. Wish I had a manual, i pulled it from a
discarded II+ system. Would bet that epson emulation is among it's features...
