        I've been having some problems with my printer on some GS programs.
I'm using an Epson LX-80 with a Grappler (unbuffered) in slot 1 of my GS
(upgraded //e).  It does work at both speeds with all the programs that I
used with the //e, such as print shop and magic window II.  But apple Access
and Electronic Arts' music construction set both completely fail to talk to
my printer.  I know that access requires the modem to be connected to the
back port on the gs in order to work.  Could it be that these programs are
looking for a serial printer in the external ports?  Any help will be
appreciated.

                                May an Ogre Mk V not roll through your home,
