A parallel switchbox is a pain in the ... : believe me, you always forget to
switch when switching is due. An EPP card costs only a mere few bucks more,
works on the fly, you don't have to think about. And you can have both your
printers working at the same time.

The only snag is, you have to open the computer case and you have to put the
EPP in an ISA slot.
The latter could be a problem of course, as newer Mobos have only one or two
Isa slots, and afaik, there are no PCI parallel cards for OS/2.
