Amstrad/Schneider Printer Support for 7bit Printer Ports

The CPC computers include a [[Printer Port|7bit 7 bit Printer Port]], which is a nasty partial restriction because most printers use 8bit 8 bit protocols.There are several ways to upgrade CPC computers to [[8bit Printer Ports]], but many of the different upgrade methods aren't compatible with each other. So, 8bit 8 bit printer software isn't neccessarily compatible with all 8bit 8 bit printer ports.In result, CPCs are more or less stuck with 7bit 7 bit protocols, which don't allow to access all printer functions. Using [[FutureOS]] you have support for the more common 8 bit printer port solutions.
