Hello.

I have an Atari ST 520 and a Panasonic 1080 (80 Column printer)
I am trying to get this working for a friend.
My experience with Atari's is very little.

When I try to print the screen to the printer, the computer seems
to think that the printer is a 132-column printer and does not
start printing at the left margin.  Also a program called StoryWriter
similarly starts printing at about the center of the page.

With programs that allow you to install a printer driver, no problems
arise.  The manual for the computer mentions a desk accessory called
InstallPrinter which is not available to me.

If anyone has any suggestions (HELP) or ftp sites where I can
download some appropriate software, please e-mail me.
