Ah, now that rings a bell. I don't think it was the Interface S I had,
but it was a Kempston, and the incompatibility with 128K mode probably
explains why I connected my printer to the RS232 port even though I'd
already shelled out for a parallel interface. In recent years, I've
often wondered what the hell I was thinking, but that'll be it.
