I'd like to us the printer port for ZIP drive IO, so I'm wondering if it is a bad idea to use the Jr. Captain RAM/Parallel card at the same time as a JRIDE? I think it may be possible to disable the Captain RAM with dip switches, or physically remove the RAM from the JRCap?

I wonder if anyone has done this.
 
You could probably do this, but it might be better to buy the IBM parallel port sidecar and do the bidirectional modification. That is what I have and it is much faster than a monodirectional port, which is what I think the Jr. Captain is.
