Hi Henning,
It's been a long time since I last wrote, but I'd like to give the 600 II EP
a go.
What kinds of tools should be used to watch what goes on over the parallel
port ?
Are there some tips and tricks that you could pass on to make this easier for
me to do ?
I imagine that looking at a small image at first is advisable and then work
from there once the protocol becomes clearer.
Is anyone else working on this at the moment ?
Cheers
David
