Printer selector switches

[Ronnie Gauthier]

Don't know about belkin, I use a data switch from PI Manufacturing, made in 
Taiwan, and works just fine with a HP 920, connectix quick clip, and a umax 
scanner. It says nothing about being IEEE compliant.

==================
Each days terror almost a form of boredom
madmen at the wheel and stepping on the gas and the brakes no good
and each day one, sometimes two, morning glories
faultless, blue, blue sometimes flecked with magenta
each lit from within with the first sunlight
