Problem is, I've just spent my last leveraged dollar on a very nice mac, and would like to make do with the DeskJet+ hooked up to my wife's PC... I've tried HPDJ 2.1, which is excellent for freeware, but it won't work on my ci with MS Word, McSink, etc., (unless I print something with WriteNow first!?!) So, of the Orange Micro, DataPak, GDT, and all the others, which is the most transparent printer driver? Which works the best with HyperCard, paint programs, and other strangely-printing code? What's the best deal? Sure would appreciate the scoop! Thanks, Greg Sorensen sorensen@imager.mit.edu or sorensen@athena.mit.edu
