Subj: REPLY TO MSG #3655 (HP DESKJET PRINTER)

Ron: Yes, invest in the Epson FX emmulation card.  Model T ROMware's printer
drivers were written for Epson printers.  Both the SuperROM and Ultimate ROM II
use a printer defination file, containing the printer control codes for bold,
italic, underland, double wide, etc., using the Epson control code strings.
Save yourself a ton of work.  Buy the Epson FX emmulation card.
 
Once you get your emmulation card installed and running, you might want to play
around with some of the screen-dump program in the library.  It's kind of nice
to be able to dump graphic screens to your printer, then add on text.  With a
little work you can do desk top publishing to a certain degree, i.e.,
newsletters, flyers, announcements, magazine-like articles, and technical
documents, complete with drawings.  It's a kick!  -Rick-
