Hello.

I was wondering if anybody has (or has heard of) a printer driver for
a Versatec V-80-OPT. I'm not exactly sure what a V-80-OPT is, other than
a rather old, expensive printer (electrostatic?) in the 200-dpi neighborhood.

My boss has one, and wants to hook it up to his IIfx, and he thought that
maybe I could write a driver. I thought that maybe he was crazy, but I
said I'd see what I could do. (So if you know anything about printer
drivers, and you feel like doing a little typing, I'd be happy. Otherwise
I'll post in c.s.m.programmer next week.)

Well, thanks in advance for any leads.


Seeya!
