Simple Protocol Converter

The Simple Protocol Converter (SPC) option allows those who use third party
add-on coax or twinax protocol converters to produce the same output on a
Printronix thermal printer with the Coax/Twinax (CTHI) capability as done
using a non-CT printer with the third party converter interfaces.

The SPC replaces the third party add-on protocol converters attached to older
Printronix thermal printers.
