Yes, there are some minor problems with the character ROM used in
emulation. However, as I understand what the emu programmers have
stated, the characters cannot be dumped. They had to be recreated by
hand, and that is where the errors were introduced. I can't say so
for
sure.

I don't know how or if ROM dumps are possible for the printers, but I
did dump the ROM for the Quick Disk drive (Using the tools created by
Emucompboy). You can download it in the "Files" area of this board.

Thank you Stefano for your work. If you can find Emucompboy, he'd
probably be able to answer your questions much beter.
