You can do so by buying an optional jumper for the Macintosh LC Logic Board. When the jumper is installed on the Macintosh LC logic board, users retain access to these Apple IIe Option Panel buttons:
- Quit IIe
- Eject Disk
- Restart IIe
- Return
However, users will not have access to any of the panels used to change Option Panel settings.
After shutting off the machine and all connected peripherals, put the jumper on the logic board near the battery. There are three sets of pins on the connector. Place the jumper on the pins closest to the battery (labeled CPE or W1 on the board).
This jumper also exists on the Macintosh LCII and Performa 405. However the designation is J17 not CPE.
