After posting to this net to find out about the deskjet series of printers
I finally parted with my cash and bought a Deskjet 500. I am very pleased with
it but I do have a problem with drivers. At the moment I am using tempus to
write reports and letters since I have the flexibility of adding control codes
into my text. However this is slow and looks pretty sad on the screen. I have
first word + but no driver for it. Ideally I am interested in purchasing a
decent word processor that will make use of the features of the deskjet. For
example, I will be probably be buying additional font cartridges at a later
date. At the moment 'Thats Write' looks quite interesting. Does anyone out
there use a deskjet and a respectable word processor that they can recommend.

Thanks in advance,

        Paul
