Hello everyone.
I have a Hewelett Packard Thinkjet printer, and was wondering if I could use it
with Word, not Word for Windows, but just plain Word. Anyway, the setup disk had
many printers, but not the HP Thinkjet, or the Epson MX-80. I mention the Epson
MX-80 because the Thinkjet WILL respond correctly to those signals, but not the
FX-80, or the RX-80, which is what Word has. There are way too many printers to
choose from to try them all, so any suggestions would be appreicated, i.e. other
printers that are identical to the Epson MX-80, or the Thinkjet.

Thanx,
-Ron
