In general, you could mix 1.2 and 1.3 printer device with printer drivers.
However, EA did a custom version of the 1.2 printer.device/drivers which
was not compatible with the directions we went in 1.3.

That was what was on the Deluxe Print disk, and they later switched to
standard 1.3 printer drivers, or so I've been told.
