This is a Sequential Systems Q-Print (or perhaps a Q-Print II)
parallel printer interface card.

Not much to be found on Google for this card apart from snippets like:

"An HP DJ 240
costs around $290, and has a parallel connector, so you will need to
install a parallel printer card in slot one of your IIe. The Q Print
II
cards are available for $49.00 from Quality Computers."

and

"CONNECTING H-P DESKJET 600C TO GS   I recently installed an HP
DeskJet 600
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""   on my Rom 3.  Piece of cake...
You
=will= need a parallel card.  I ordered mine -- the Q Print II by
Sequential Systems -- from Scantron Quality Computers.  It comes with
the
proper cable, so don't let anyone tell you that you need to buy a
cable
when you purchase your DeskJet.

     The docs that come with the DeskJet will help you set up your
printer, and the Q Print II docs will tell you what you need to know
to
install the card in a IIGS slot and connect it to our printer.  As
soon as
you get your driver software installed and configured, you'll be all
set.
Doesn't take long at all.

     Good luck ...

>>>>>   Make sure you order the QPrint _II_...They sell another card called
"""""   the QPrint and it won't work.  There isn't a driver for it in
the
Harmonie package.

     OTOH, a GS + Qprint II + HP 600c = Happy Apple IIGS user."
