Sorta. The RS-232 pack gives you the serial interface, but then you'll
want the "printer support pack" to make it print to a serial printer.
The Mnemonic packs have built-in support for the serial interface, so
you can still do stuff like printing disassembly and state info without
the printer pack. I used the "print" commands from the Z-80 Mnemonic
pack to print to my old HP Omnibook running Telix when cracking Pacman
Plus and The Glob (w/ Mike Balfour). Worked well.

That's probably true! I've got both-- maybe I'll do a quick compare
inside someday...

Yeah, kinda hard to tell-- I think one had a "real" sticker on it and
the rest were just hand-labeled. I should copy the ROMs to be safe
anyway.
