Grappler+
Apple Printer Interface Card for Apple II IIe
and IIgs
A Grappler+ Printer Interface by OrangeMicro
for the Apple II, IIe, or IIgs, card is not tested
- no guarantee (seems unused, no scratches). The
cable you need to connect a Printer to your Apple
is the very common "Centronics cable".
It is sold by several Apple II vendors. The pin-out
is shown below:

What are the DIP switches on my Grappler+ for?
The DIP switches are used to configure your
card for a series of different printers out
there. I'll list those settings:
