Printer buffers are usually thought of as computer peripherals,
that is, 'boxes' connected between the computer and the
printer. Put that thought aside for a moment and you will see
the advantages of the insertion card version we propose here:
no power supply, no case, no extra cables. The printer buffer
presented here has a pretty large capacity, while also giving
you a second printer port at the same I/O address. The card
allows RAM ICs as weil as RAM modules (SIPP or SIMM types)
to be used, and offers a total buffer capacity of 1 MByte or
4 MByte, depending on the type of memory fitted. Suitable for
all types of IBM PC and compatible, be it a 286, 386 or 486
machine.
