The
FingerPrint'
SS
Serial
Printer
Interface
The
Apple
II
is
purposely
made
to
accept
expansion
boards.
The
owner
can
add
the
serial
or
parallel
printer
interface
that
is
appropriate
for
the
kind
of
printer
connected
to
the
computer.
What
It
Is
The
FingerPrint
SS
is
a
small
circuit
board
that
sends
data
from
the
Apple
II
to
your
printer.
It
plugs
into
an
empty
slot
on
the
main
circuit
board,
the
motherboard,
of
your
Apple
IT.
What
It
Does
The
FingerPrint
SS
operates
automatically
through
your
software
or
if
writing
your
own
programs,
through
simple
keystroke
commands.
It
enables
the
programmer
to
print
screen
graphics,
or
text
in
full
color
or
black
&
white.
It
will
send
commands
to
the
printer
to
set
page
margins,
line
length,
line
feed,
and
page
length,
etc.
If
you
are
using
commercially
prepared
software,
these
features
are
done
by
the
software.
The
FingerPrint
SS
will
let
you
dump
the
screen
to
the
printer,
rotate
the
screen-dump
90
degrees,
double
its
size,
etc.
The
FingerPrint
SS
is
compatible
with
the
majority
of
brand
name
printers.
The
FingerPrint
SS
offers
more
flexibility
with
the
computer
and
the
printer
than
with
any
other
printer
interface.
A
)
Warranty
Important:
Save
the
Sales
Receipt.
The
FingerPrint
SS
comes
with
a
two
year
no
hassle
warranty.
If
there
is
ever
a
problem
with
the
FingerPrint
SS
Printer
interface
during
the
warranty
period,
write
or
call
Thirdware
for
a
Return
Merchandise
Authorization,
(RMA),
then
return
it
to:
Thirdware
Computer
Products,
Inc.
3300
Corporate
Avenue,
#
116,
Fort
Lauderdale,
FL
33331
along
with
the
sales
receipt
for
a
no
hassle
repair
or
exchange.
3
How
It
Works
The
FingerPrint
SS
works
in
either
of
two
ways:
1)
Asa
serial
printer
interface
with
the
added
feature
of
allowing
the
user
to
manipulate
and
control
the
printer
settings
from
the
keyboard
of
the
com-
puter.
bo
)
As
a
serial
communications
interface
for
use
with
modems
or
other
serial
DCE
(data
communication
equipment)
devices.
Please
note
that
there
is
no
need
to
change
the
cable
when
switching
from
one
to
the
other
of
the
above
applications.
In
the
upper
left-hand
corer
of
the
card
are
a
set
of
shunts
which
allow
you
to
select
the
way
in
which
your
FingerPrint
card
will
work.
When
set
as
seen
in
position
"A",
the
FingerPrint
card
will
be
set
for
use
with
a
printer.
When
set
in
position
"B",
the
card
is
set
to
work
with
modems
or
other
DCE
type
devices.
Please
note
that
the
Apple
Personal
Modem
uses
the
setting
a
shown
in
position
"A".
Make
sure
that
you
have
the
correct
setting
for
your
application
or
the
FingerPrint
SS
card
will
not
function
correctly.
You
should
now
go
on
to
the
next
chapter
and
set
the
DIP
switches
that
correspond
to
the
printer
that
you
will
be
using
before
installing
the
FingerPrint
card
in
your
com-
puter.

The
Dip
Switch
Prior
to
installation,
find
the
small
group
of
8
switches
mounted
on
the
card.
This
is
called
the
Dip
Switch.
Locate
your
printer
on
the
printer
chart
below,
and
set
each
switch
handle
on
the
dip
switch
to
either
on
or
off,
according
to
the
chart.
The
switch
will
show
1
or
0.
1
is
on
and
0
is
off.
If
your
printer
is
not
listed,
ask
your
dealer
which
of
the
below
is
compatible
and
use
those
settings.

next
to
the
power
supply.
Note:
If
at
all
possible,
Slot
1
should
be
used.
Most
programs
will
search
for
the
printer
interface
in
slot
1:
however
it
will
work
in
any
other
slot
except
0.
If
you
insert
the
FingerPrint
SS
in
any
other
slot,
remember
which
slot
number
it
is.
If
you
write
your

the
slot
number
when
you
use
the
FingerPrint
SS.

with
a
gentle
rocking
motion.
Be
careful
not

so
it
will
only
go
in
one
way.
To
plug
in
the
cable:
Guide
the
small
end
of
the
cable
into
ine
rear
of
the
computer
through
the
chassis
opening
nearest
the
FingerPrint
SS
and
plug
it
into
the
board.
It
may
be
easier
to
insert
the
cable
through
the
chassis
opening
and
plug
it
into
the
board
before
plugging
the
board
in.
Then
plug
the
other
end
into
the
printer.
Refer
to
photograph
number
two
for
correct
placement
of
the
plug
on
the
board.

to
set
the
boundaries
of
the
page
and
thus
format
it.
LL
If
you
are
not
using
a
word

and
the
command
for
line

is

you
would
type
the
command:
