This is more than rediculous, it is shoddy programming. Everything else I use
that uses my modem port sets it the way it wants it and moves on. Even if I
don't use my printer my software hangs unless I modify the control panel.

Furthermore, I'm still waiting for a GS version of the software that works on
my hard drive. The last version they shipped to me had some bad blocks on it.
The previous version would not run from a hard drive.

And, since I'm on a roll, I'm still waiting on my t-shirt and my gold keychain.
