📝 Collector‑Grade Description (Ready to Paste)

Vintage Orange Micro Grappler+ Parallel Printer Interface Card for the Apple II / II+ / IIe. This is the enhanced “Plus” version of the classic Grappler interface, offering Centronics‑compatible parallel output, advanced text formatting, and HIRES graphics dump routines built directly into firmware.

The Grappler+ was widely regarded as one of the most capable Apple II printer interfaces of its era, supporting screen dumps, image rotation, magnification, and flexible control‑code‑based formatting.

This example is in Very Good Condition, with a clean PCB, bright edge connector, and no corrosion visible. Includes the original parallel cable and manual, making it ideal for collectors, restorers, and anyone assembling a period‑correct Apple II printing setup.

Untested due to lack of compatible printer—sold as‑is.
