Hello,
   We have an Epson LX-80 printer model P87RA which has become separated from
its manuals.  It is working, but without a description of what the dip-switches
actually do it is not much use. 

   The printer has both parallel and serial interfaces (at least it has a DB25
female socket, and a centronics connector), and 2 banks of dip-switches.  One
bank has 8 microswitches and the other 4 microswitches.

   I would greatly appreciate any help identifying the functions produced by the
dip-switches.

Thanks
  Robert
