H Everyone,

   Recently I was looking at getting 'Appleworks' for my //e and while I was
at the store the salesman couldn't get a anything to print out over 80 ols
wide. I wanted him to duplicate my system which has the Okidata 92 printer. 
Since Apple Doesn't consider the OKI in the Printer Sect. we had to type in
the special codes. Now we know they were entered correctly as the Word Proc
part of 'Appleworks' was ok!! From what I could gather they it looks like they 
(Database/Word Proc) use the same special printer codes.I've seen the problem
duplicated on a CITOH 8510 Printer also. Geez.... you'd think Apple would have alittle more forethought as regards to the printers you can use. How many people got Qumes!! Since I wanna KEEP my OKI, does anyone have any ideas. Appleworks
is a nice program but, with this shortcoming I cant see them selling it to 
alot of people and making friends!! Thanx !!!!
