Okay, this may be true.
Warmbooting win95 after some failed detection attempt in ECP/EPP mode,
windows also failed detection. Turning off Zip Drive/PC and coldbooting
did get win95 to recognize the ZIP however wven in ECP/EPP mode.
After finally finding that EPP makes ppa recognize the zip, we didn't
test any further...
