   I just got a copy of System Disk V5.03.  I was really amaze at the speed
of the new ImageWriter Driver.  One thing that I notice is that the system
was free while the ImageWriter was still being used.  I have seen this 
before with ProDOS programs (like AppleWorks 3.0) because they use the 
printer buffer memory.  So I wonder if this new driver uses the printer buffer 
in order to free the computer while printing.  If this is so, I may thing about
getting extra memory for the ImageWriter.  Any ideas about this...
