	I'm afraid you're out of luck, though my information is old.
	(If anyone knows otherwise, I'd love to know about it, too.)

	When I discovered the "venetian blind effect" on the Gemini's
	graphics, I called Star Micronics (the manufacturer) and talked
	with their tech support folks.  (This was probably two years ago.)
	They said that they were coming out with an Epson-compatible
	version, but that there was no way to modify my existing 10X
	to be compatible.  ... And they had no plans to develop an
	upgrade kit.
