Sorry Greg, but the gorilla printer is a 7pin Dotmatrix with no
decenders.  I just gave 2 brand new ones away.  They were left over
from my days as a dealer of CoCo soft and hard Wares.  Would be
interested to know what kind of mod was required, I never had to mod
any of them.  They ran just fine with the coco.  Of course I had to
set the serial port to thier speed.  I think I used to run at 4800
baud to the printer.
