I have a question about the Deskwriter and quick draw printers in general. I 
have a friend who has a Deskwriter (I have one also) who wants to use it with
his paint package he got with his system. He has a SE with 20 MEG drive. The
paint package he wants to use is FullPaint. When he tries to print with it he
gets an error message that the "driver is not installed". Yet with other 
packages such as his wordprocessor the Deskwriter does fine. Is anyone out
there familiar with Fullpaint??? Does it print in only postscript or some
thing else and thus not work with quick draw type printers like the
Deskwriter. I have never had any trouble with my Deskwriter and my own
paint package (Superpaint). I am going to try his paint package with mine
and see if I can spot the problem, but I was wondering if FullPaint does
something different than using the printer you have choosen in the Chooser???
