Anyway, I'd appreciate comments out there from anybody who's got one on the following: 1. What kind of cable do I need to connect it up (if there is a choice, parallel is preferable) ? 2. Did HP ever come out with an improved ink? I heard rumor of this, that there was some ink that had less problems with smearing. 3. I've heard rumor of a much-improved preferences driver for the DJ+. Could somebody send this to me, or tell me where to ftp it? 4. Any suggestions on other "essential" software I should get (I've got AmigaTeX, of course :-) thanks! monty kosma@human-torch.lasc-research.lockheed.com
