Yeah I agree totally. I've always said this. Personally I think not having a standard printer interface of any kind parallel or serial made the Coupe a rather eccentric design. I mean since the Spectrum 128 there has been serial and from the plus 3 onwards there was parallel but the Coupe made it an option yet fitted other less important connections. The Coupe is probably the last home computer not to have serial/parallel until the imac came along.
