(The print device driver is hard wired for Epson use, the code is unavailable, there is no current way around it.) If you don't want bit-mapped screen dumps, any of the standard micro printers are just fine. The interface is slow however, and does not operate in the background. -- Mark Roddy Net working, Just reading the news. (harvard!talcott!panda!enmasse!mroddy)
