I don't doubt this specifically, just think it's better to check. JFG has stated many times that the PIL-Box (and associated IL-Per flavors from various authors) was designed to be used as a peripheral for use with PCs and not all HP-IL modes and features are included. He knows which are/aren't; I;m certain I'll die before knowing such details, but happy as a clam using it the way it was intended.

Exactly. An email is free, and likely answered within a day. $69 plus ship plus weeks of time is a lot to risk (IMHO) if the simple answer is "no, it won't work because xyz..."
