Carl: The basis for just about all printer driver programs is Epson printers, or printers that emmulate the Epson escape codes. Tandy printers, besides always being more expensive, do not emmulate the Epson escape codes--at least that's the way it was for all these years. However, the newer Tandy printers may emmulate the Epson escape codes now that even Tandy had to knuckle under to the micro-leader, Intel processors driven by MS-DOS. When you initialize the Ultimate ROM II you will seea file called CONFIG.DO. This files holds all the printer control (escape) codes. The default code set is Epson, and was initially developped to drive the Epson 80 series printers. You may, however, alter the codes as CONFIG.DO is an ASCII file. -Rick-
