    Yup, tried it in 48K mode on both. I have a grey 128 + 2 so all good there.

    Looks dead to me - only part that works as I said was the feed button.

    Dunno if it would work, BUT- save all the system variables except the first 256 bytes that is the original printer buffer area. On the +3 (so I assume the 128 too), that space is used for paging the RAM, so yeah. Speccy 128 would act up a little.
