Hi, I've recently upgraded my A1000 to an A2000, and can't get the 2000 to
talk to my Gemini 10x printer. It worked just fine with the 1000. Things
I've tried include:

5 IBM style printer cables from 4 different manufacturers (The 2000 IS supposed
to be IBM compatable isn't it?)

Tried printer and cable(s) with Compaq Plus PC-Clone, printer and cable(s)
worked fine. (So I know that the printer still works...)

Tried a different A2000 at my dealer's it didn't work either.

Tried several printer preferences, although "epson" always worked just fine
on the A1000....

Tried both the 2000 1.2 dos, and my old A1000 1.2 dos, nope, nothing.

Double checked and confirmed the printer was in PC compatability mode, even
though it works fine with the Compaq.

Added and subtracted disk drives, mice, etc. to see if that made a difference,
again, nope.

Tried different brand printer with 2000, this worked. (But I WANNA USE MINE!)

So each of the parts (printer, cable, A2000) work by themselves, but not
together.

(The printer does do a reset when I reboot Amy2, but it's lips are sealed!)

DOES ANYONE OUT THERE HAVE AN A2000 TALKING TO A Gemini 10x? HOW DID YOU
DO IT???????
