Mpls MN Lines: 20 Well, I just got my DeskJet Plus printer, and it didn't work (at first.) It turns out that I have to power up the DeskJet before I power up my Atari 520 ST, or the handshaking between the two comes up hung. If I thereafter power down/up the DeskJet, I've lost the printer until I push the reset button on the Atari. Anybody else have this problem, I don't recall it being mentioned. (Of course I didn't recall that the regular DeskJet Epson emulation cartridge wouldn't work on the DeskJEt Plus, either. I specifically asked the ComputerLand salesman and he told me (and sold me) that it would indeed work. Well it didn't so they'll have to order a "Plus" version of the emulator and exchange it with the one (wrong) that they had in stock.) -- - John M.
