Info Please!!!!! >---------- The HP DeskJet follows a subset of the HP LaserJet command set. There is a LaserJet driver to work with Publishing Partner that is included with Partner Fonts (by SoftLogic). It works just fine with the DeskJet. Also, you can buy an Epson (FX-80) emulation cartridge that works great. It has worked with all software that I have tried it with. It is slow printing sideways (for spreadsheets). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The preceeding opinions are a relection upon me, not my employer. / _ _ * / _ _ / \/ \ / /_/ /_\ ________________________/ / /_/\_/ \__/\__________________________________ | | | Michael L.
